وَ رُوِيَ عَنِ اَلْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ بِنْتِ إِلْيَاسَ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِأَبِي اَلْحَسَنِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ هَلْ يَجُوزُ بَيْعُ اَلنَّخْلِ إِذَا حَمَلَ قَالَ "لاَ يَجُوزُ بَيْعُهُ حَتَّى يَزْهُوَ" قُلْتُ وَ مَا اَلزَّهْوُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ قَالَ "يَحْمَرُّ وَ يَصْفَرُّ".

Al-Hasan bin Ali bin Bint Ilyas narrated: I asked Abu Al-Hasan (a.s): Is it permissible to sell palm trees when they have borne fruit? Imam (a.s) said: "It is not permissible to sell them until they ripen." I said: What is meant by ripening, may I be your ransom? Imam (a.s) said: "When they turn red or yellow."
