If someone's property is with a bankrupt person
Hadith 654
510- مالك عن يحيى بن سعيد عن أبى بكر بن محمد ابن عمرو بن حزم عن عمر بن عبد العزيز عن أبى بكر بن عبد الرحمن بن الحارث بن هشام عن أبى هريرة أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال: أيما رجل أفلس فأدرك الرجل ماله بعينه فهو أحق به من غيره.
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "If a man becomes insolvent (bankrupt) and another person finds his own property with him in its original form (exactly as it was), then he has more right to that property than others."
