It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man was presented before Allah for reckoning, but no good deed was found in his account. However, he was a wealthy man who used to trade with people. He had instructed his servants to give respite to those in difficulty. Upon this, Allah Almighty said: "We are more deserving of this than you. Angels! Pardon My servant as well." Thus, he was forgiven.
