4534. It was narrated that Abû Sa'eed Al-Khudrî said: "At the time of the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ, a man suffered loss of some fruit that he had purchased, and his debts increased. The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: 'Give him charity.' So the people gave him charity, but that was not enough to pay off his debts. The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: 'Take what you find, but you have no right to more than that.'" (Sahih)
4530 - أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ بُكَيْرٍ، عَنْ عِيَاضِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ قَالَ: أُصِيبَ رَجُلٌ فِي عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي ثِمَارٍ ابْتَاعَهَا، فَكَثُرَ دَيْنُهُ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «تَصَدَّقُوا عَلَيْهِ» فَتَصَدَّقَ النَّاسُ عَلَيْهِ، فَلَمْ يَبْلُغْ ذَلِكَ وَفَاءَ دَيْنِهِ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «خُذُوا مَا وَجَدْتُمْ، وَلَيْسَ لَكُمْ إِلَّا ذَلِكَ»

It has been argued on the basis of this report that forgiving damage is not essential, otherwise, the need to give command for charity would not have arisen. Although, according to this Tradition, only the existing commodity has been given. Concerning the remaining part, it has been made explicitly clear that 'you have no right to more than that'. So to say, the damage was forgiven but not in its entirety.
