2418. Narrated 'Abdullāh bin Ka'b bin Mālik: Ka'b رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ demanded his debt back from Ibn Abī Ḥadrad in the mosque and their voices grew louder till Allāh's Messenger ﷺ heard them while he was in his house. He came out to them raising the curtain of his room and addressed Ka'b, "O Ka'b!" Ka'b replied, "Labbaik, O Allāh's Messenger." (He said to him), "Reduce your debt to half," gesturing with his hand. Ka'b said, "I have done so, O Allāh's Messenger!" On that the Prophet ﷺ said to Ibn Abī Ḥadrad, "Get up and repay the debt to him."

2418 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عُمَرَ، أَخْبَرَنَا يُونُسُ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ كَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ كَعْبٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ: أَنَّهُ تَقَاضَى ابْنَ أَبِي حَدْرَدٍ دَيْنًا كَانَ لَهُ عَلَيْهِ فِي المَسْجِدِ، فَارْتَفَعَتْ أَصْوَاتُهُمَا حَتَّى سَمِعَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ فِي بَيْتِهِ، فَخَرَجَ إِلَيْهِمَا حَتَّى كَشَفَ سِجْفَ حُجْرَتِهِ، فَنَادَى: «يَا كَعْبُ»، قَالَ: لَبَّيْكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: «ضَعْ مِنْ دَيْنِكَ هَذَا»، فَأَوْمَأَ إِلَيْهِ - أَيِ الشَّطْرَ - قَالَ: لَقَدْ فَعَلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: «قُمْ فَاقْضِهِ»
