Ibrahim says that every item of equal measure should be given and taken equally. If there is a difference in kind, then an increase or decrease can be made. Similarly, every edible thing should be equal in measure. However, if there is a difference in kind, then an increase or decrease can be made.

Hazrat Shurayh says that the right is new; by not demanding it for a long time, it will not become invalid.

Hasan says regarding the person who steals a slave and sells him forward, then the slave dies while in the possession of the buyer, the buyer's dirhams will be lost and the owner of the slave will recover the price of the slave from the thief.

Hazrat Ja'far says that I asked Hazrat Zuhri whether if a person buys fulus in exchange for dirhams, is this a transaction of sarf (currency exchange)? He replied, yes, this is sarf; do not separate before taking possession.

Ibrahim was asked about a person who sold some clothes saying that each piece is for ten dirhams, and among those clothes, some are superior to others, and some clothes have defects. What is the ruling? He will return the cloth in exchange for ten dirhams. Hazrat Sufyan says another thing, which is that the price of that cloth should be given according to the total value of the whole bundle. Hazrat Sufyan says that this is preferable in my view.

24591 - He said: Sufyan or someone else, (saying: he returns it for its value from the entire price; Sufyan said) (1): And this is more beloved to me.

Hazrat Sha'bi (may Allah have mercy on him) says that if a person gives permission to a slave for trade and then sells him, he will be held liable.

Hazrat Hasan bin Salih says that I asked Hazrat Ja'd bin Zikwan whether he was present with Hazrat Shurayh when he said that he enforces the testimony of a witness? He replied, yes, provided that he is just.

Hazrat Shurayh used to enforce the testimony upon the witness when testimony was given before him.

Hazrat Shurayh did not consider the testimony of another person against a witness to be permissible as long as that witness was alive, even if he was in Yemen.
