في الرجل يكون له على الرجل الدين فيهدي له أيحسبه من دينه؟
A man owed a debt by another who gives him a gift: does he count it towards the debt?
Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 21922 — A man owed a debt by another
٢١٩٢٢ - حدثنا أبو بكر قال: حدثنا حفص بن غياث عن عاصم عن ابن سيرين أن (أبيا) (١) كان له على عمر دين فأهدى إليه هدية فردها، فقال عمر: إنما الربا على من أراد أن يربي (و) (٢) ينسئ (٣).
Ibn Sirin said that Sayyiduna Ubayy (may Allah be pleased with him) was owed a debt by Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him). Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) sent him a gift, and he returned it. Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Usury (riba) only occurs when one wants to pay back the money with an increase, or wants to have the payment deferred.
