Chapter 24 · The Book Of Musaqahحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ الْعَبْدِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ كُهَيْلٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: كَانَ لِرَجُلٍ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَقٌّ، فَأَغْلَظَ لَهُ، فَهَمَّ بِهِ أَصْحَابُ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِنَّ لِصَاحِبِ الْحَقِّ مَقَالًا»، فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «اشْتَرُوا لَهُ سِنًّا، فَأَعْطُوهُ إِيَّاهُ»، فَقَالُوا: إِنَّا لَا نَجِدُ إِلَّا سِنًّا هُوَ خَيْرٌ مِنْ سِنِّهِ، قَالَ: «فَاشْتَرُوهُ، فَأَعْطُوهُ إِيَّاهُ، فَإِنَّ مِنْ خَيْرِكُمْ، أَوْ خَيْرَكُمْ أَحْسَنُكُمْ قَضَاءً.

Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) owed (something) to a person. He behaved in an uncivil manner with him. This vexed the Companions of the Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ), whereupon Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: He who has a right is entitled to speak, and said to them (his Companions): Buy a camel for him and give that to him. They said: We do not find a camel (of that age) but one with better age than that. He said: Buy that and give that to him, for best of you or best amongst you are those who are best in paying off debt.
