28-68 My father and Muhammad ibn Al-Hassan al-Waleed - may God be pleased with them - narrated that Muhammad ibn Yahya al-Attar and Ahmad ibn Idris quoted on the authority of Muhammad ibn Ahmad ibn Yahya ibn Imran al-Ash’ari that Ja’far ibn Ibrahim ibn Muhammad al-Hamdani - may God have Mercy upon him - who was on the Hajj pilgrimage with him - narrated that he wrote a letter to Abil Hassan (s) through my father in which I wrote, “May I be your ransom! The Shiites differ with each other regarding what a sa’ is. Some say that the alms tax for fasting should be calculated based on the Medina Sa’, while others say that it should be calculated based on the Iraqi Sa’.” The Imam (s) wrote me, “One ‘as-Sa equals six Medina Artals and nine Iraqi Artals.” He (s) also said, “It equals 1170 Dirhams.”
