3900 - وَ رَوَى اَلْحَسَنُ بْنُ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ خَالِدٍ عَنْ أَبِي اَلرَّبِيعِ قَالَ : سُئِلَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ يَتَقَبَّلُ اَلْأَرْضَ مِنَ اَلدَّهَاقِينِ فَيُؤَاجِرُهَا بِأَكْثَرَ مِمَّا يَتَقَبَّلُهَا بِهِ وَ يَقُومُ فِيهَا بِحَظِّ اَلسُّلْطَانِ فَقَالَ "لاَ بَأْسَ بِهِ إِنَّ اَلْأَرْضَ لَيْسَتْ مِثْلَ اَلْأَجِيرِ وَ لاَ مِثْلَ اَلْبَيْتِ إِنَّ فَضْلَ اَلْأَجِيرِ وَ اَلْبَيْتِ حَرَامٌ".

Hadith.3900 - Al-Hasan bin Mahbub narrated from Khalid, from Abu Al-Rabi', who said: Abu Abdillah (as) was asked about a man who leases land from the landowners (dahaaqeen) and then subleases it for more than what he leased it for, while also being responsible for paying the taxes required by the authorities. Imam (as) said: "There is no harm in that. Land is not like a hired worker or a rented house, as the profit from a worker or a house is prohibited."
