Hadith 1386
حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى، عَنْ مَالِك، عَنْ
زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ ، عَنْ
عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ ، عَنْ
أَبِي رَافِعٍ مَوْلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ : اسْتَسْلَفَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَكْرًا، فَجَاءَتْهُ إِبِلٌ مِنَ الصَّدَقَةِ، قَالَ أَبُو رَافِعٍ : فَأَمَرَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ أَقْضِيَ الرَّجُلَ بَكْرَهُ، فَقُلْتُ : لَمْ أَجِدْ فِي الْإِبِلِ إِلَّا جَمَلًا خِيَارًا رَبَاعِيًا، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ :
" أَعْطِهِ إِيَّاهُ فَإِنَّ خِيَارَ النَّاسِ أَحْسَنُهُمْ قَضَاءً "
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Rafi’ (may Allah be pleased with him), who was a freed slave of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) took a loan of a young camel. When the camels for charity (zakat) came, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered me to repay a similar camel. I said: O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! Among the camels for charity, all the camels are good and large, six years old. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Give from them; the best people are those who repay debts in the best manner.”
