Narrated by Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever dies in a state that he is in debt (let him know that) there will be no dinar or dirham there, rather, there will be an exchange of good deeds and bad deeds.

Narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to supplicate: I seek refuge with Allah from disbelief and debt. A man said: O Messenger of Allah! Is debt equal to disbelief? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Yes.

Narrated by Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him): He says, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) sent me to Haliq Nasrani so that he might send some clothes to you (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) on credit until an easy time. So I went to him and said: The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) has sent me to you so that you may send some clothes to him on credit until an easy time. But he (mockingly) said: What is an easy time and when does it come? By Allah! Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) has neither a goat nor a camel. (Hearing this) I returned and reached the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family). When he (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) saw me, he said: This enemy of Allah is lying, I am the best in dealings, (but remember that) if a man wears a garment made of different patches, it is better for him than to acquire something because of his trust that he does not possess.

Narrated from Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), she says: The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) was wearing two Omani or Qatari garments. I said, "These two garments are thick; when you sweat in them, they become heavy. A certain merchant has received a type of cloth; if you send him a message, he might sell you two garments on easy terms." When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent him a message, he said, "I know what Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) wants; he wants to seize my cloth, meaning he will not pay me my dirhams in exchange." When this matter reached the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), he said, "Indeed, he is lying. These people know that I am the most God-fearing among them, the most truthful, and the most trustworthy in fulfilling trusts."

Narrated by Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever takes wealth from people (as a loan or otherwise) with the intention of repaying it, Allah Almighty assists him in its repayment. But whoever takes people's wealth with the intention of wasting it, Allah Almighty also destroys him.

Muhammad bin Abdullah bin Jahsh (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates from his father (Abdullah bin Jahsh, may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: A man came to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ... then the hadith was narrated in the same manner.

Narrated from Sayyiduna Salamah bin Akwa’ (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: I was sitting with the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) when a funeral was brought. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: Did this deceased leave any debt? The people said: No. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: Did he leave any inheritance? The people said: No. So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performed his funeral prayer. Then another funeral was brought. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked about him: Did he leave any debt? They said: No. Then he asked: Did he leave any inheritance? They said: Yes, he left three dinars. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), counting on his fingers, said: These are three marks of fire. Then a third funeral was brought. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: Was he in debt? They said: Yes, he was in debt. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: Did he leave any inheritance? They said: No. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Then you perform his funeral prayer yourselves. Upon hearing this, Sayyiduna Abu Qatadah Ansari (may Allah be pleased with him) said: O Messenger of Allah! His debt is upon me. Then the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performed his funeral prayer.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Musa Ash'ari (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: After the well-known major sins forbidden by Allah Almighty, the greatest sin in the sight of Allah is that a person dies in such a state that he is in debt and has not left any inheritance to pay it off.

Narrated by Sayyiduna Suhaib bin Sinan (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever takes a loan from another person and Allah Almighty knows that he does not intend to repay it, then it means that he has deceived in the name of Allah Almighty and acquired his wealth in a wrongful manner. Such a person will meet Allah Almighty in the state of being a thief.

Narrated from Sayyiduna Muhammad bin Abdullah bin Jahsh (may Allah be pleased with them both), he says: We were sitting in the courtyard of the mosque at the place where the funeral biers are placed. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was also present among us. Suddenly, he raised his gaze towards the sky, then lowered his sight and placed his blessed hand on his forehead and said: "Subhan Allah! Subhan Allah! How severe a hardship is descending." We remained silent for a day and night, while we had only received goodness. The next day, when morning came, Sayyiduna Muhammad (may Allah be pleased with him) asked: "What was that hardship which was descending?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "It was about debt. By the One in whose hand is the soul of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him)! If someone is killed in the way of Allah, then brought back to life, then killed again in the way of Allah, then brought back to life, then killed again, then brought back to life, and upon him is a debt, he will not be able to enter Paradise until his debt is paid."
