1312. hadíth
وَ رَوَى أَبَانٌ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ اِسْتَأْجَرَ مِنْ رَجُلٍ أَرْضاً فَقَالَ آجِرْنِيهَا بِكَذَا وَ كَذَا إِنْ زَرَعْتُهَا أَوْ لَمْ أَزْرَعْهَا أُعْطِيكَ ذَلِكَ فَلَمْ يَزْرَعِ اَلرَّجُلُ قَالَ "لَهُ أَنْ يَأْخُذَهُ بِمَالِهِ إِنْ شَاءَ تَرَكَ وَ إِنْ شَاءَ لَمْ يَتْرُكْ".
Aban narrated from Isma'il who said: I asked Abu Abdillah (a.s) about a man who rented land from another man and said: "Rent it to me for such-and-such amount, whether I cultivate it or not, I will pay you that amount." However, the man did not cultivate the land. Imam (a.s) said: "The owner has the right to claim the payment. If he wishes, he may waive it, and if he wishes, he may not waive it."
