Abu Ali al-Ash’ariy has narrated from Muhammad ibn ‘Abd al-Jabbar from Muhammad ibn ‘Isma’il from Ali ibn al-Nu’man from abu al-Sabbah al-Kinaniy who has said the following: “About the case of a man who works for Mudarabah (profit sharing), abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘He can have (his share of) the profit but is not liable for depreciation (loss) unless he violates the instructions of the owner of the assets.”’ صحيح - Allamah Baqir al-Majlisi (Mirʾāt al-ʿUqūl fī Sharḥ Akhbār Āl al-Rasūl (19/294))
