Sayyiduna Hudhayfah ibn al-Yaman (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "An angel came to the soul of a man from the previous nations before you (at the time of his death) and asked: 'Did you do any good deeds?' The soul replied: 'No.' They said: 'Recall.' He said: 'I used to lend money to people and would instruct my servants to give respite to those in difficulty and to be lenient with those who were well-off.'" He (the Prophet) said: "Allah Almighty commanded the angels: 'Treat him with leniency, do not be harsh with him.'"

Brief Explanation
(Commentary on Hadith 2581) A "musr" is called a person who eats, drinks, and is wealthy. From this hadith, the virtue of forbearance and gentleness in dealings is understood, that in trade, solely due to the goodness of this gentleness and forbearance, Allah Ta'ala forgave him and showed leniency.
