[159] Now at that time Roja the Malla was a friend of the Venerable Ānanda. A worn piece of linen cloth (khomapilotikā) belonging to Roja the Malla had been deposited in the hands of the Venerable Ānanda, and the Venerable Ānanda had need of a worn piece of linen cloth. They informed the Blessed One of this matter. "Bhikkhus, I allow one to take on trust (vissāsa) from a person endowed with five factors: he is one who has been seen (an acquaintance), he is an intimate companion, he has been spoken to (leave has been given), he is still living, and one knows, 'When I have taken it, he will be pleased.' Bhikkhus, I allow one to take on trust from a person endowed with these five factors."
