وَعَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ اَلْخُدْرِيِّ – رضى الله عنه – قَالَ: { أُصِيبَ رَجُلٌ فِي عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اَللَّهِ – صلى الله عليه وسلم -فِي ثِمَارٍ اِبْتَاعَهَا, فَكَثُرَ دَيْنُهُ, فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ – صلى الله عليه وسلم -” تَصَدَّقُوا عَلَيْهِ ” فَتَصَدَّقَ اَلنَّاسُ عَلَيْهِ, وَلَمْ يَبْلُغْ ذَلِكَ وَفَاءَ دَيْنِهِ, فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ – صلى الله عليه وسلم -لِغُرَمَائِهِ: ” خُذُوا مَا وَجَدْتُمْ, وَلَيْسَ لَكُمْ إِلَّا ذَلِكَ } رَوَاهُ مُسْلِمٌ 1 . 1 – صحيح. رواه مسلم ( 1556 ).

Narrated Abu Sa’id al-Khudri (RA): In the time of Allah’s Messenger (صلى الله عليه وسلم) a man suffered a loss affecting fruits he had bought, owed a large debt and became bankrupt. So, Allah’s Messenger (صلى الله عليه وسلم) said to the people, “Give him Sadaqah (charity).” Hence, the people gave him charity. However, that was not enough to repay his debt in full. Therefore, Allah’s Messenger (صلى الله عليه وسلم) said to the creditors, “Take whatever you find, and you will have nothing other than that.” [Reported by Muslim].
