Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id (may Allah be pleased with him) said: In the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), a man bought some fruit, and it was destroyed by some calamity, and his debt became very great. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Give him charity." So the people gave him charity, but even then his debt was not fully paid. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Take whatever you have found; you have nothing other than that."
