English translation

[3998] 31 - (1562) It was narrated from Abû Hurairah that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: “A man used to lend money to the people, and he used to say to his slaves: ‘If you come to one who is in difficulty, let him go; perhaps Allâh will let us go. When he met Allâh, He let him go.’”

Arabic text

31 - (1562) حَدَّثَنَا مَنْصُورُ بْنُ أَبِي مُزَاحِمٍ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ، قَالَ مَنْصُورٌ: حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، وقَالَ ابْنُ جَعْفَرٍ: أَخْبَرَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ وَهُوَ ابْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " كَانَ رَجُلٌ يُدَايِنُ النَّاسَ، فَكَانَ يَقُولُ لِفَتَاهُ: إِذَا أَتَيْتَ مُعْسِرًا فَتَجَاوَزْ عَنْهُ، لَعَلَّ اللهَ يَتَجَاوَزُ عَنَّا، فَلَقِيَ اللهَ فَتَجَاوَزَ عَنْهُ "،
