Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 24790 — A man who falls into debt and part
٢٤٧٩٠ - حدثنا أبو بكر (قال: حدثنا وكيع) (١) قال: حدثنا الأعمش عن عمرو ابن مرة عن أبي صالح الحنفي أن قوما لزمهم ديون في زمن عمر بن الخطاب، فكتب عمر (٢) إلى عامله أن (يؤخروا) (٣) ثلثا إلى الميسرة ويحطوا (ثلثا) (٤) (ويتعجلوا ثلثا) (٥) ففعلوا (٦).
It is reported from Abu Salih al-Hanafi that a group of people fell into debt during the caliphate of Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him). Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) wrote to their governor: "Defer a third of the debt until they are well-off, cancel a third and collect a third immediately." So they did this.
