It is narrated from Ibn Sirin (may Allah have mercy on him) that two men brought a case before Shurayh the Judge (may Allah have mercy on him) regarding a matter, and one of them had a right over the other. Shurayh gave judgment in favor of the one who had the right and ordered the other man to be imprisoned. A person present there said: "This man is insolvent, and Allah the Exalted says in His Book: ﴿وَإِنْكَانَذُوعُسْرَةٍفَنَظِرَةٌإِلَىٰمَيْسَرَةٍ﴾ 'And if the debtor is in hardship, then let there be postponement until [a time of] ease.'" Shurayh (may Allah have mercy on him) replied: "This verse is about the matter of usury, and Allah the Exalted says: ﴿إِنَّاللَّهَيَأْمُرُكُمْأَنْتُؤَدُّواالْأَمَانَاتِإِلَىٰأَهْلِهَا﴾ 'Indeed, Allah commands you to render trusts to whom they are due.'"
