2285. It was narrated from Abu Râfi' that the Prophet ﷺ asked a man to give as a loan a young camel and said: "When the camels of the Sadaqah come, we will pay you back." When the camels came, he said: "O Abu Râfi', pay this man back for his young camel." But all I could find was a seven-year-old camel or that which is better. I told the Prophet ﷺ and he said: "Give it to him, for the best of people are those who are best in repaying." (Sahih)
