[3986] (...) It was narrated from Ka'b bin Mâlik that he was owed money by 'Abdullâh bin Abî Hadrad Al-Aslamî. He met him and pressured him to pay it, and they spoke until their voices became loud. The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ passed by them and said: "O Ka'b!" and gestured with his hand as if he was telling him, 'Half.' So he took half of what was owed him and waive the rest.
(1558) - قَالَ مُسْلِمٌ: وَرَوَى اللَّيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، حَدَّثَنِي جَعْفَرُ بْنُ رَبِيعَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ هُرْمُزَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ كَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ كَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، أَنَّهُ كَانَ لَهُ مَالٌ عَلَى عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي حَدْرَدٍ الْأَسْلَمِيِّ، فَلَقِيَهُ، فَلَزِمَهُ، فَتَكَلَّمَا حَتَّى ارْتَفَعَتْ أَصْوَاتُهُمَا، فَمَرَّ بِهِمَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ: «يَا كَعْبُ»، «فَأَشَارَ بِيَدِهِ كَأَنَّهُ يَقُولُ النِّصْفَ»، فَأَخَذَ نِصْفًا مِمَّا عَلَيْهِ، وَتَرَكَ نِصْفًا
