Narrated Jabir (RA): A man from among us died, so we washed, embalmed and shrouded him. We then brought him to Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) and asked him to pray over him. He went forward some steps and then asked, "Does he have any debt against him?" We replied, "Two Dinars." He turned away, but Abu Qatada (RA) took upon himself the bearing of them. We then came to him (again) ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) and Abu Qatada (RA) said: "I shall discharge the two Dinars." Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) thereupon said, " [Will you be responsible for paying them as] a right to the creditor; and the dead man will then be free from them?" He replied, "Yes." So, he prayed over him. [Reported by Ahmad, Abu Dawud, and an-Nasa'i. Ibn Hibban and al-Hakim graded it Sahih (authentic)] .
