[4108] 118 - (1600) It was narrated from Abû Râfi' that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ borrowed a young camel from a man, then some Sadaqah camels were brought to him. He told Abû Râfi' to give the man back his camel, and Abû Râfi' came back to him and said: "I could not find anything among them but camels that were better and older." He said: "Give it to him, for the best of people are those who are best in paying off their debts."

Arabic text

118 - (1600) حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الطَّاهِرِ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَمْرِو بْنِ سَرْحٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، عَنْ مَالِكِ بْنِ أَنَسٍ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، عَنْ أَبِي رَافِعٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ اسْتَسْلَفَ مِنْ رَجُلٍ بَكْرًا، فَقَدِمَتْ عَلَيْهِ إِبِلٌ مِنْ إِبِلِ الصَّدَقَةِ، فَأَمَرَ أَبَا رَافِعٍ أَنْ يَقْضِيَ الرَّجُلَ بَكْرَهُ، فَرَجَعَ إِلَيْهِ أَبُو رَافِعٍ، فَقَالَ: لَمْ أَجِدْ فِيهَا إِلَّا خِيَارًا رَبَاعِيًا، فَقَالَ: «أَعْطِهِ إِيَّاهُ، إِنَّ خِيَارَ النَّاسِ أَحْسَنُهُمْ قَضَاءً»،
