وَ رُوِيَ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِأَبِي إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ رَجُلٌ يَدُلُّ اَلرَّجُلَ عَلَى اَلسِّلْعَةِ وَ يَقُولُ اِشْتَرِهَا وَ لِيَ نِصْفُهَا فَيَشْتَرِيهَا اَلرَّجُلُ وَ يَنْقُدُ مِنْ مَالِهِ قَالَ لَهُ نِصْفُ اَلرِّبْحِ قُلْتُ فَإِنْ وُضِعَ لَحِقَهُ مِنَ اَلْوَضِيعَةِ شَيْءٌ فَقَالَ "نَعَمْ عَلَيْهِ اَلْوَضِيعَةُ كَمَا يَأْخُذُ اَلرِّبْحَ".
Ishaq ibn Ammar narrates: I said to Abu Ibrahim (Imam Musa ibn Jafar Al-Kadhim (a.s)): A man directs another man to a commodity and says, 'Buy it, and half of it will be mine.' The man buys it and pays from his own money. The Imam (a.s) replied: "He is entitled to half the profit." I asked: "What if there is a loss; does he also bear part of the loss?" The Imam (a.s) said: "Yes, he is liable for the loss just as he shares in the profit."
