English translation

4623. Irbād bin Sāriyah said: "I lent a young camel to the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, and I came to ask him to repay me. He said: 'Yes, I will only repay you with a superior she-camel.' So he repaid me and repaid me well. Then a Bedouin came to him to ask him to repay him a camel of a certain age, and the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said; 'Give him a camel of a certain age.' On that day they gave him a mature camel and he said: 'This is better than my camel.' He (The Prophet ﷺ) said: 'The best of you is the one who is best in repaying.'" (Sahīh)

٤٦١٩ - أَخْبَرَنَا ‌إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا ‌عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ ‌سَعِيدَ بْنَ هَانِئٍ يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ ‌عِرْبَاضَ بْنَ سَارِيَةَ يَقُولُ: «بِعْتُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَكْرًا، فَأَتَيْتُهُ أَتَقَاضَاهُ فَقَالَ: أَجَلْ، لَا أَقْضِيكَهَا إِلَّا نَجِيبَةً! فَقَضَانِي فَأَحْسَنَ قَضَائِي، وَجَاءَهُ أَعْرَابِيٌّ يَتَقَاضَاهُ سِنَّهُ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: أَعْطُوهُ سِنًّا. فَأَعْطَوْهُ يَوْمَئِذٍ جَمَلًا، فَقَالَ: هَذَا خَيْرٌ مِنْ سِنِّي! فَقَالَ: خَيْرُكُمْ خَيْرُكُمْ قَضَاءً».
