بَابُ جَامِعِ الدَّيْنِ وَالْحِوَلِComprehensive Chapter on Debt and Transfer
Hadith 1382
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنْ مَالِك، عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ ، عَنْ الْأَعْرَجِ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ : " مَطْلُ الْغَنِيِّ ظُلْمٌ، وَإِذَا أُتْبِعَ أَحَدُكُمْ عَلَى مَلِيءٍ فَلْيَتْبَعْ "
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: "The delay of a wealthy person in repaying a debt is injustice, and when any of you is referred to a wealthy person (for payment), he should accept the referral."
