Thus, a deceased person was brought, and the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) asked, "Does he have any debt?" The people informed him that he owed two dinars. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, "You perform the funeral prayer of your companion yourselves." Sayyiduna Abu Qatadah (may Allah be pleased with him) submitted, "O Messenger of Allah! His debt is upon me." Upon this, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) performed his funeral prayer. Then, when Allah opened the doors of conquest for the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), he announced, "I have more right over every Muslim than his own self. Therefore, whoever dies in debt, it is upon me, and whoever leaves wealth, it is for his heirs."

That she-camel would come from this path and leave from that path, but the people of Thamud disobeyed the command of their Lord and hamstrung her. Although that she-camel would drink the water of one day, and on the other day they would drink her milk. But when they hamstrung her, a heavenly cry seized them, and under the shadow of the sky not a single person remained alive except the man who was in the Sacred Sanctuary (Haram). Someone asked: 'O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), who was he?' The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'He was Abu Righal. When he left the Haram, the same punishment befell him that had come upon his people.'"
