عن ابي نضرة عن سعد بن الاطول رضي الله عنه ان اخاه مات وترك ثلاثمائة درهم، وترك عيالا فاردت ان انفقها على عياله، فقال النبي صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم: ((إن اخاك محبوس بدينه فاقض عنه))، فقال: يا رسول الله! فقد اديت إلا دينارين، ادعتهما امراة وليس لها بينة، قال: ((فاعطها فإنها محقة))
Sayyiduna Sa’d bin Atwal (may Allah be pleased with him) says: His brother passed away, leaving behind three hundred dirhams, and he also had family and dependents. I wanted to spend this amount on them. But the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Your brother has been held back because of debt, so you should pay off his debt on his behalf. I said: O Messenger of Allah! I have paid all his debt, but two dinars remain; a woman has made a claim about them, but she has no proof. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Give them to her as well, because she is speaking the truth.
