4621. It was narrated from Abû Râfi' that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ borrowed a young camel from a man, then he came to get his camel back. He said to a man: "Go and buy a young camel for him." He came and said: "I could only get a Rabâ'i camel of good quality." He said: "Give it to him, for the best of the Muslims is the one who is best in repaying." (Sahîh)

Arabic text

4617 - أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، عَنْ أَبِي رَافِعٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " اسْتَسْلَفَ مِنْ رَجُلٍ بَكْرًا، فَأَتَاهُ يَتَقَاضَاهُ بَكْرَهُ، فَقَالَ لِرَجُلٍ: «انْطَلِقْ فَابْتَعْ لَهُ بَكْرًا». فَأَتَاهُ فَقَالَ: مَا أَصَبْتُ إِلَّا بَكْرًا رَبَاعِيًا خِيَارًا، فَقَالَ: «أَعْطِهِ، فَإِنَّ خَيْرَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ أَحْسَنُهُمْ قَضَاءً»

Commentary

We get to learn that an animal could be taken on loan. A similar animal should be returned on the specified time, as an amount of money is returned after taking it as a loan for a specified period of time.
