وَ قَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: "مَكْتُوبٌ فِي اَلتَّوْرَاةِ أَنَّهُ مَنْ بَاعَ أَرْضاً وَ مَاءً فَلَمْ يَضَعْ ثَمَنَهُ فِي أَرْضٍ وَ مَاءٍ ذَهَبَ ثَمَنُهُ مَحْقاً ".
Abu Ja'far Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir عليه السلام said: "It is written in the Torah that whoever sells land and water, and does not invest its price in land and water, its price will be lost in ruin."
