Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 21374 — A man who buys goods that perish

Dawud bin Abi Hind said: A man bought some goods from another man on the condition of payment by a fixed date, and left them with the seller. At night a fire broke out in the house and some of the goods burned. I asked al-Sha'bi about this, and he said: The loss falls on the one in whose possession it was.
