ولكن يقول: قام علي بكذا ولا يقول: اشتريته بكذا
Translation: He should say, “It has cost me such-and-such,” not “I bought it for such-and-such.”
“I bought it for” reports the first contract price; “it cost me” can report the legitimate accumulated cost including later qualifying expenses.
If goods were bought for Rs 10,000 and dyed for Rs 1,000, “the goods cost me Rs 11,000” may be truthful. “I bought them for Rs 11,000” would misstate the original contract.
