Muhammad bin Ubaydullah al-Thaqafi (may Allah have mercy on him) bought goods from a man; he paid part of the price in cash and part remained. He said: Hand over the goods, but the seller refused. Then the buyer quickly brought the remaining price and gave it to him. He said: Come and take possession of your goods. He found it dead. He said: Return my money, but he refused. The two of them brought the dispute to Qadi Shurayh (may Allah have mercy on him), and Qadi Shurayh (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Return his money, and go and bury your carcass.
