Musnad Abi Ya'la 1921 — when (my father) Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr
حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ ، عَنْ مُغِيرَةَ ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ : تُوُفِّيَ أَوِ اسْتُشْهِدَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عَمْرِو بْنِ حَرَامٍ وَعَلَيْهِ دَيْنٌ ، فَاسْتَعْدَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - عَلَى غُرَمَائِهِ أَنْ يَضَعُوا مِنْ دَيْنِهِ ، فَطَلَبْتُ إِلَيْهِمْ فَلَمْ يَفْعَلُوا ، فَقَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : اذْهَبْ فَصَنِّفْ تَمْرَكَ أَصْنَافًا : الْعَجْوَةَ عَلَى حِدَةٍ ، وَعَذْقَ زَيْدٍ عَلَى حِدَةٍ ، أَصْنَافًا ، ثُمَّ أَرْسِلْ إِلَيَّ ، قَالَ : فَفَعَلْتُ ، ثُمَّ أَرْسَلْتُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَجَاءَ فَجَلَسَ عَلَى أَعْلَاهُ أَوْ فِي وَسَطِهِ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : كِلْ لِلْقَوْمِ ، قَالَ : فَكِلْتُ لَهُمْ حَتَّى أَوْفَيْتُهُمُ الَّذِي لَهُمْ ثُمَّ بَقِيَ تَمْرِي كَأَنَّهُ لَمْ يَنْقُصْ مِنْهُ شَيْءٌ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them both) that when (my father) Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr bin Haram (may Allah be pleased with him) died, or was martyred (at the Battle of Uhud), he was burdened with debt. I appealed to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) to intercede with his creditors so that they would waive part of the debt. I also asked them myself, but they would not agree. Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to me: "Go and separate your dates according to their kinds: a pile of 'ajwah on its own and of 'adhq zayd on its own, and then let me know." Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I did so, and then sent for the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). He (peace and blessings be upon him) came and sat on top of the dates, or in the middle of them, and then said: "Now begin measuring out for these people." I measured out for them until I had paid them their full due, and even then my dates remained just as they were, as if nothing had been taken from them.
