بَاعَ أَبِي أَرْضاً مِنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بِمَالٍ فَاشْتَرَطَ فِي بَيْعِهِ أَنْ يُزَكِّيَ هَذَا الْمَالَ مِنْ عِنْدِهِ لِسِتِّ سِنِينَ.
“Abu ’Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘My father purchased a piece of land from Sulayman ibn ‘Abd al-Malik for a certain amount with a condition that he (Sulayman) will pay its Zakat for six years.’”
سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع يَقُولُ بَاعَ أَبِي مِنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ أَرْضاً لَهُ بِكَذَا وَ كَذَا أَلْفَ دِينَارٍ وَ اشْتَرَطَ عَلَيْهِ زَكَاةَ ذَلِكَ الْمَالِ عَشْرَ سِنِينَ وَ إِنَّمَا فَعَلَ ذَلِكَ لِأَنَّ هِشَاماً كَانَ هُوَ الْوَالِيَ.
‘My father purchased a piece of land from Hisham ibn ‘Abd al-Malik for such and such hundred thousand dinar with a condition that he will pay its Zakat for ten years. He did it as such because Hisham was the ruler.’”
