Original Arabic text

4ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ حَرِيزٍ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ وَمُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) أَنَّهُمَا قَالاَ لَهُ هَذِهِ الأرْضُ الَّتِي يُزَارِعُ أَهْلُهَا مَا تَرَى فِيهَا فَقَالَ كُلُّ أَرْضٍ دَفَعَهَا إِلَيْكَ السُّلْطَانُ فَمَا حَرَثْتَهُ فِيهَا فَعَلَيْكَ فِيمَا أَخْرَجَ الله مِنْهَا الَّذِي قَاطَعَكَ عَلَيْهِ وَلَيْسَ عَلَى جَمِيعِ مَا أَخْرَجَ الله مِنْهَا الْعُشْرُ إِنَّمَا عَلَيْكَ الْعُشْرُ فِيمَا يَحْصُلُ فِي يَدِكَ بَعْدَ مُقَاسَمَتِهِ لَكَ.

Published English translation

4. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Hammad ibn ‘Isa from Hariz from abu Basir and Muhammad ibn Muslim who has said the following: “The two of them asked abu Ja’far (a.s.), about the land cultivated by the people. He (the Imam) said, ‘If you contract such land from government then out of what Allah makes it grow, comes your share according to the terms of the contract. One out of ten is not payable from its gross harvest. One out of ten is due on your net dividend.’”
