The Case of Prices of Goods

1- مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ عَنْ يَعْقُوبَ بْنِ يَزِيدَ عَنِ الْغِفَارِيِّ عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَدِّهِ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) عَلامَةُ رِضَا اللهِ تَعَالَى فِي خَلْقِهِ عَدْلُ سُلْطَانِهِمْ وَرُخْصُ أَسْعَارِهِمْ وَعَلامَةُ غَضَبِ اللهِ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى عَلَى خَلْقِهِ جَوْرُ سُلْطَانِهِمْ وَغَلاءُ أَسْعَارِهِمْ.
1. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Muhammad ibn Ahmad from Ya’qub Yazid from al-Ghifariy from al-Qasim ibn Muhammad ibn Ishaq from his father from his grandfather who has said the following: “He (the Imam) عليه السلام, has said that the Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, has said, ‘Of the signs of happiness of Allah, most High, with His creatures is the existence of a just ruler and low prices. Of the signs of unhappiness of Allah, most High with His creatures is the existence of an unjust ruler and high prices.’”
