Hadith 4854
أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ قُتَيْبَةَ بِعَسْقَلانَ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا حَرْمَلَةُ بْنُ يَحْيَى ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنَا يُونُسُ ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يُؤْتَى بِالرَّجُلِ الْمَيِّتِ عَلَيْهِ الدَّيْنُ ، فَيَسْأَلُ ، هَلْ تَرَكَ لِدَيْنِهِ وَفَاءً ؟ فَإِنْ حُدِّثَ أَنَّهُ تَرَكَ وَفَاءً صَلَّى عَلَيْهِ وَإِلا ، قَالَ : صَلُّوا عَلَى صَاحِبِكُمْ ، فَلَمَّا فَتَحَ اللَّهُ جَلَّ وَعَلا عَلَيْهِ الْفُتُوحَ ، قَالَ : " أَنَا أَوْلَى بِالْمُؤْمِنِينَ مِنْ أَنْفُسِهِمْ ، فَمَنْ تُوُفِّيَ وَعَلَيْهِ دَيْنٌ فَعَلَيَّ قَضَاؤُهُ ، وَمَنْ تَرَكَ مَالا فَهُوَ لِوَرَثَتِهِ " .
Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: When the dead body of a person who was in debt was brought to the service of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), he would ask whether the deceased had left anything for the repayment of his debt. If it was informed that he had left something through which his debt could be paid, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would perform his funeral prayer. Otherwise, he (peace and blessings be upon him) would say, "You people perform the funeral prayer of your companion." When Allah Almighty granted victories to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), he said: "I am closer to every believer than his own self. Whoever dies in a state that he owes a debt, its payment is my responsibility, and whoever leaves wealth, it will go to his heirs."
