Bismillah Walhamdulillah Was Salaatu Was Salaam 'ala Rasulillah As-Salaam Alaikum Wa-Rahmatullahi Wa-Barakatuhu Loans,Bankruptcy - 12th Dhul-Hijja 1426 (13 January 2006) Narrated Jabir bin 'Abdullah (Radhiallaho anho): When my father died he owed a Jew thirty Awsuq (of dates). I requested him to give me respite for repaying but he refused. I requested Allah's Messenger (sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) to intercede with the Jew. Allah's Messenger went to the Jew and asked him to accept the fruits of my trees in place of the debt but the Jew refused. Allah's Messenger entered the garden of the date-palms, wandering among the trees and ordered me (saying), "Pluck (the fruits) and give him his due." So, I plucked the fruits for him after the departure of Allah's Messenger and gave his thirty Awsuq, and still had seventeen Awsuq extra for myself. Jabir said: I went to Allah's Messenger to inform of what had happened, but found him praying the 'Asr prayer. After the prayer I told him about the extra fruits which remained. Allah's Messenger told me to inform (Umar) Ibn Al-Khatab (Radhiallaho anho) about it. When I went to 'Umar and told him about it, 'Umar said, "When Allah's Messenger walked in your garden, I was sure that Allah would definitely bless it." Bukhari Vol. 3 : No. 581
