قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع‌ مَا عَمَلُكَ فَقُلْتُ حَنَّاطٌ وَ رُبَّمَا قَدِمْتُ عَلَى نَفَاقٍ وَ رُبَّمَا قَدِمْتُ عَلَى كَسَادٍ فَحَبَسْتُهُ‌ قَالَ فَمَا يَقُولُ مَنْ قِبَلَكُمْ فِيهِ قُلْتُ يَقُولُونَ مُحْتَكِرٌ قَالَ يَبِيعُهُ أَحَدٌ غَيْرُكَ قُلْتُ مَا أَبِيعُ أَنَا مِنْ أَلْفِ جُزْءٍ جُزْءاً فَقَالَ لَا بَأْسَ إِنَّمَا كَانَ ذَلِكَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ يُقَالُ لَهُ حَكِيمُ بْنُ حِزَامٍ وَ كَانَ إِذَا دَخَلَ الطَّعَامُ الْمَدِينَةَ اشْتَرَاهُ كُلَّهُ فَمَرَّ عَلَيْهِ النَّبِيُّ ع فَقَالَ لَهُ يَا حَكِيمَ بْنَ حِزَامٍ إِيَّاكَ أَنْ تَحْتَكِرَ.

Hadith.3957 - Safwan ibn Yahya narrated from Salamah al-Hannat, who said that Abu Abdullah (as), asked: "What is your occupation?" I replied: "I am a wheat seller, and sometimes I arrive during a time of demand, and sometimes I arrive during a time of stagnation, so I hold onto it." Imam (as) asked: "What do the people around you say about this?" I said: "They say I am a hoarder." Imam (as) then asked: "Do others besides you sell it?" I said: "I sell only a small portion compared to the whole market." Imam (as) replied: "There is no harm in that. This issue arose with a man from Quraysh named Hakim ibn Hizam. Whenever food entered Medina, he would buy all of it. The Prophet, peace be upon him and his family, passed by him and said: 'O Hakim ibn Hizam, beware of hoarding.'"
