Man Lā Yaḥḍuruh al-Faqīh|Volume 3|Book 1|Chapter 13
وَ سَأَلَ أَبُو أَيُّوبَ اَلْخَزَّازُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ يُحِيلُ اَلرَّجُلَ بِالْمَالِ أَ يَرْجِعُ عَلَيْهِ قَالَ "لاَ يَرْجِعُ عَلَيْهِ أَبَداً إِلاَّ أَنْ يَكُونَ قَدْ أَفْلَسَ قَبْلَ ذَلِكَ".
Abu Ayyub al-Khazzaz asked Abu Abdillah عليه السلام about a man who transfers his debt to another man. Imam عليه السلام said: "He cannot revert the debt back to the original debtor under any circumstances, except if the transferee had already declared bankruptcy before the transfer."
