Hadith 3476

عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: أُصِيبَ رَجُلٌ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي ثِمَارٍ ابْتَاعَهَا فَكَثُرَ دَيْنُهُ، قَالَ: فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((تَصَدَّقُوا عَلَيْهِ))، قَالَ: فَتَصَدَّقَ النَّاسُ عَلَيْهِ فَلَمْ يَبْلُغْ ذَلِكَ وَفَاءَ دَيْنِهِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((خُذُوا مَا وَجَدْتُّمْ وَلَيْسَ لَكُمْ إِلَّا ذَلِكَ))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id Khudri, may Allah be pleased with him, that during the time of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, a man bought some fruit, but he was afflicted by a calamity and his debt became very large. The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "O people! Give charity to him." So the people gave him charity, but it was not enough to pay off his debt. Eventually, the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said (to the creditors): "Take whatever you find with him, and you will get only that."
