قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع أَشْتَرِي الْغَنَمَ أَوْ يَشْتَرِي الْغَنَمَ جَمَاعَةٌ ثُمَّ تُدْخَلُ دَاراً ثُمَّ يَقُومُ رَجُلٌ عَلَى الْبَابِ فَيَعُدُّ وَاحِداً وَ اثْنَيْنِ وَ ثَلَاثَةً وَ أَرْبَعَةً وَ خَمْسَةً ثُمَّ يُخْرِجُ السَّهْمَ قَالَ لَا يَصْلُحُ هَذَا إِنَّمَا يَصْلُحُ السِّهَامُ إِذَا عُدِلَتِ الْقِسْمَةُ.

2. Ahmad ibn Muhammad has narrated from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from ‘Abd al-Rahman ibn al-Hajjaj from Minhal al-Qassab who has said the following: “This is concerning my question before abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about the case of my buying sheep or a group’s buying sheep saying, ‘They enter a house, then a man stands at the door counts one, two, three, four, and five, then calls it one share.’ He (the Imam) said, ‘It is not valid. Shares are valid only when they are equal.’”
Translation: Muhammad Sarwar — attributed by Thaqalayn·The Arabic above is the original.
