It is narrated from Muhammad, may Allah have mercy on him, that Hazrat Qasim bin Muhammad took his dispute to a judge, who ruled against him. Then that judge was dismissed, and after that, the judge was changed. The second judge used to rule in favor of Qasim. Someone said to him, "If only you would take the dispute to him!" Hazrat Qasim replied, "No, I took the case to the judge, and he gave a verdict."

Muhammad, may Allah have mercy on him, says that there is no harm if someone sells cloth in this manner: If you take the whole, then for ten dirhams; if you take half, then for eleven dirhams.

It is narrated from Hazrat Umar bin Abu Zaida that we brought a letter from the judge of Kufa to Hazrat Iyas bin Muawiyah. When I arrived, Hazrat Iyas had been removed from his position and Hasan had been appointed as the judge. I gave my letter to him, and he accepted it without asking me anything about it. Then he opened the letter and spread it out, and in it he found the testimony of two witnesses for me against a man of Basra regarding five hundred dirhams. Then he said to the person who was standing by him, "Take him to Ibn Ziyad and tell him to send him to so-and-so, and collect five hundred dirhams from him and give it to him." The narrator says that then he took me and did exactly as he had been told.

Both of them said: It is not correct.

Hazrat Shurayh said: Present witnesses to prove that he sold you the slave girl without a molar tooth; otherwise, he will swear an oath that he sold her to you and she had a molar tooth.

Hazrat Mansur says that I asked Ibrahim, "A shoemaker made my shoes without taking any payment, but he made them poorly. Should I hold him liable?" He replied, "I do not think it is good that you did not pay him any wages, and now you want to hold him liable as well."
