Sunan An-Nasa`i : 3892
أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَاتِمٍ، قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا حِبَّانُ، قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ قِرَاءَةً، قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِعَطَاءٍ: عَبْدٌ أُؤَاجِرُهُ سَنَةً بِطَعَامِهِ، وَسَنَةً أُخْرَى بِكَذَا وَكَذَا. قَالَ: لَا بَأْسَ بِهِ وَيُجْزِئُهُ اشْتِرَاطُكَ حِينَ تُؤَاجِرُهُ أَيَّامًا أَوْ آجَرْتَهُ وَقَدْ مَضَى بَعْضُ السَّنَةِ ، قَالَ: إِنَّكَ لَا تُحَاسِبُنِي لِمَا مَضَى.
It was narrated that Ibn Juraij said: I said to 'Ata': 'What if I hire a slave for a year in return for his food, and for another year, in return for such and such?' He said: 'There is nothing wrong with that, and you may stipulate your conditions of hiring even for a few days.' 'How about if I make a deal to hire him when part of the year has passed?' He said: 'Do not hold me to account for what has passed.'
