5473 - أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا حَيْوَةُ وَذَكَرَ آخَرَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سَالِمُ بْنُ غَيْلَانَ التُّجِيبِيُّ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ دَرَّاجًا أَبَا السَّمْحِ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا الْهَيْثَمِ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا سَعِيدٍ يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنَ الْكُفْرِ، وَالدَّيْنِ» قَالَ رَجُلٌ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، أَتَعْدِلُ الدَّيْنَ بِالْكُفْرِ؟، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «نَعَمْ»

Commentary

In this chapter, the term Dayn is used, which also means debt or pecuniary obligation in general. Dayn signifies every right which is to be fulfilled obligatorily, whether it is a debt or something else. Seeking refuge from Dayn means death might not befall me in a state when I owe rights to others, because this obligation would also become a barrier in one's entering into Paradise, as death upon disbelief prohibits entrance into Paradise. This is the reason why refuge from both these things is collectively sought, though disbelief permanently prohibits entry into Paradise.
