English translation

3891. It was narrated from Hammâd and Qatâdah, concerning a man who said to another man: "I will lease (something) from you until I reach Makkah for such and such a payment, and if I travel for a month or such and such - something that he named - I will give you such and such in addition." They did not see anything wrong with that, but they did not like it if he said: "If I travel for more than a month I will deduct such and such from your lease." (Sahih)

Arabic text

3860 - أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا حِبَّانُ، قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ، عَنْ حَمَّادٍ، وَقَتَادَةَ، " فِي رَجُلٍ قَالَ لِرَجُلٍ: أَسْتَكْرِي مِنْكَ إِلَى مَكَّةَ بِكَذَا وَكَذَا، فَإِنْ سِرْتُ شَهْرًا - أَوْ كَذَا وَكَذَا شَيْئًا سَمَّاهُ - فَلَكَ زِيَادَةُ كَذَا وَكَذَا، فَلَمْ يَرَيَا بِهِ بَأْسًا، وَكَرِهَا أَنْ يَقُولَ: أَسْتَكْرِي مِنْكَ بِكَذَا وَكَذَا، فَإِنْ سِرْتُ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ شَهْرٍ، نَقَصْتُ مِنْ كِرَائِكَ كَذَا وَكَذَا "

Commentary

The objective is that if the mount ran fast and it took less time, I would pay you more money; but if the mount did not run fast, and took more time, then I would pay you less. The former situation is permissible because in it the condition of giving a prize or reward is found; and obviously giving reward is permitted. The latter situation is forbidden, because it is a form of wronging the owner of the mount. It took more time, on one hand; and on the other hand, he got less rent. Tyranny or oppression is not allowed.
