A man overwhelmed by debt

Sayyiduna Mu'adh bin Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him) came into debt, so the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) took out wealth from his property for his creditors.

Shurayh used to sell whatever was above the waist-wrapper.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Bilal bin al-Harith (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man used to use expensive riding mounts and travel ahead of the pilgrims, until he became destitute. Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said in a sermon: To proceed: the man named al-Usayfi' of the tribe of Juhaynah was content, for his religion and trustworthiness, merely with being called Sabiq al-Hajj (that is, one who outstrips the pilgrims). The result is that he took on debt heedlessly, and now he is overwhelmed by debt. Whoever has a claim of credit against him should come to us, and we will divide his property among those creditors.

Umar bin Abd al-Aziz would not sell a man's slave or his house in payment of a debt.

Umar bin Abd al-Aziz (may Allah have mercy on him) declared a man bankrupt and put him to work for hire.

When someone was bankrupt before Shurayh, he would divide whatever remained among the creditors.
