رَوَى غِيَاثُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ آبَائِهِ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: فِي رَجُلَيْنِ بَيْنَهُمَا مَالٌ مِنْهُ بِأَيْدِيهِمَا وَ مِنْهُ غَائِبٌ عَنْهُمَا فَاقْتَسَمَا اَلَّذِي بِأَيْدِيهِمَا وَ أَحَالَ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمَا بِنَصِيبِهِ فَقَبَضَ أَحَدُهُمَا وَ لَمْ يَقْبِضِ اَلْآخَرُ فَقَالَ "مَا قَبَضَ أَحَدُهُمَا فَهُوَ بَيْنَهُمَا وَ مَا ذَهَبَ فَهُوَ بَيْنَهُمَا".
Ghiyath ibn Ibrahim narrated from Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام from his father, Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir عليه السلام, from his forefathers, from Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib عليه السلام: Regarding two men who share property-some of it is in their possession, and some is absent-so they divide what is in their possession, and each one assigns his share. One of them collects his share, but the other does not collect his share. Imam Ali عليه السلام said: "Whatever is collected by one of them is shared between them, and whatever is lost is also shared between them."
