Chapter on Trade, Its Etiquettes, Virtues, and Jurisprudence
وَ رَوَى إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: "مَنْ أَخَذَ اَلْمِيزَانَ بِيَدِهِ فَنَوَى أَنْ يَأْخُذَ لِنَفْسِهِ وَافِياً لَمْ يَأْخُذْهُ إِلاَّ رَاجِحاً وَ مَنْ أَعْطَى فَنَوَى أَنْ يُعْطِيَ سَوَاءً لَمْ يُعْطِ إِلاَّ نَاقِصاً ".
Ishaq ibn Ammar narrated from Abu Abdillah عليه السلام who said: "Whoever takes the scales in his hand with the intention of taking a full measure for himself will only take more than his due. And whoever gives with the intention of giving an equal measure will only give less."
