3899 - وَ رَوَى اَلْحَسَنُ بْنُ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ جَرِيرٍ أَخِي إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ جَرِيرٍ قَالَ : سُئِلَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنْ أَرْضٍ يُرِيدُ رَجُلٌ أَنْ يَتَقَبَّلَهَا فَأَيُّ وُجُوهِ اَلْقَبَالَةِ أَحَلُّ قَالَ "يَتَقَبَّلُ مِنْ أَهْلِهَا بِشَيْءٍ مُسَمًّى إِلَى سِنِينَ مُسَمَّاةٍ فَيَعْمُرُ وَ يُؤَدِّي اَلْخَرَاجَ فَإِنْ كَانَ فِيهَا عُلُوجٌ فَلاَ يُدْخِلِ اَلْعُلُوجَ فِي اَلْقَبَالَةِ فَإِنَّ ذَلِكَ لاَ يَحِلُّ".

Hadith.3899 - Al-Hasan bin Mahbub narrated from Khalid bin Jarir, the brother of Ishaq bin Jarir, who said: Abu Abdillah (as) was asked about a piece of land that a man wanted to lease. He was asked which form of leasing (qabalah) is permissible. Imam (as) said: "He may lease it from its owners for a specified amount and for a specified number of years. He should cultivate it and pay the required tax (kharaj). However, if there are non-Muslim laborers (ʿuluj) working on it, he must not include them in the lease agreement, for that is not permissible."
