Q
How does Islam encourage forgiveness and leniency in financial matters?
A
`Abdullah bin Abu Hadrad Al-Aslami owed Ka`b bin Malik some money. One day the latter met the
former and demanded his right, and their voices grew very loud. The Prophet (ﷺ) passed by them and said,
“O Ka`b,” beckoning with his hand as if intending to say, “Deduct half the debts.” So, Ka`b took half
what the other owed him and remitted the other half.
