It is narrated from Hazrat Sa’d bin Atwal (may Allah be pleased with him) that my brother passed away, leaving behind three hundred dinars and small children. I wanted to spend something on them, but the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Your brother has died in debt, so go and pay off his debt first. So I went and paid off his debt, then I came and submitted, O Messenger of Allah! (peace and blessings be upon him) I have paid all my brother’s debts, and except for one woman, no creditor remains; she claims two dinars but has no witness. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Consider her truthful and pay her debt as well.

It is narrated from the father of Hazrat Abu’l-Ahwas that once the Prophet (peace be upon him) saw me in a disheveled state and asked,“Do you have any wealth?”I replied,“Yes!”The Prophet (peace be upon him) asked,“What kind of wealth?”I replied,“Allah has granted me all kinds of wealth, such as goats and camels, etc.”The Prophet (peace be upon him) said,“Then the effects of Allah’s blessings and honor should be visible on you.”Then the Prophet (peace be upon him) said,“Is it not so that when someone in your tribe has a camel born to them, whose ears are whole and sound, you take a razor and cut its ear and say, ‘This is Bahira’; sometimes you flay their skin and say, ‘This is Sarm’; sometimes you declare them forbidden for yourself and your family?”I asked,“To what are you inviting?”The Prophet (peace be upon him) said,“To Allah and to maintaining ties of kinship.”I asked,“If one of my paternal cousins comes to me and I have sworn an oath not to give him anything, but then I give him, what should I do?”The Prophet (peace be upon him) said,“Offer expiation for your oath and do what is better.”He then said,“Tell me, if you have two slaves, one of whom obeys you, does not belie you, and does not betray you, and the other betrays you and belies you, (which one would you prefer?)”I replied,“The one who does not betray me, does not belie me, and confirms my word.”The Prophet (peace be upon him) said,“This is also your position in the sight of your Lord.”

I replied, "Allah has granted me all kinds of wealth, such as goats and camels, etc." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Then the effects of Allah’s blessings and honor should be visible on you."

It is narrated from Hazrat Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that I submitted, "O Messenger of Allah! (peace and blessings be upon him), please tell me, if I go as a guest to someone's place and he neither honors me nor shows hospitality, then if that same person comes to my place as a guest, should I treat him the same way he treated me, or should I show him hospitality?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "You should show him hospitality." On one occasion, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked, "What kind of wealth do you have?" I replied, "Allah has granted me all kinds of wealth, such as goats and camels, etc." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Then the effects of Allah's blessings and honor should be visible on you."

It is narrated from Hazrat Amr bin Auf (may Allah be pleased with him), who was among the participants of the Battle of Badr, that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) once sent Hazrat Abu Ubaidah bin Jarrah (may Allah be pleased with him) to Bahrain so that he could collect jizya from there. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) had made peace with the people of Bahrain and had appointed Hazrat Alaa bin Hadrami (may Allah be pleased with him) as their leader. Accordingly, Abu Ubaidah (may Allah be pleased with him) brought wealth from Bahrain. When the Ansar learned of his arrival, they presented themselves before the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) at the Fajr prayer. When the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) finished the Fajr prayer, they appeared before him. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) smiled upon seeing them and said, "Perhaps you have heard of Abu Ubaidah's return and that he has brought something?" They replied, "Yes, O Messenger of Allah!" The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, "Rejoice and hope for that which will make you happy. By Allah, I do not fear poverty for you, but I fear that the world will be opened up for you as it was opened up for those before you, and you will compete in it as they competed, and you will be distracted by it as they were distracted." The previous hadith is also narrated through this second chain.
