Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that during the time of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), a man suffered a loss in the purchase of fruits, which caused him to incur a large debt. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Give charity to him." The people gave charity, but the debt was not fully paid off. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Take whatever is given to you; beyond that, you have nothing."
