Umar ibn Khaldah said: We came to Abu Hurairah who had become insolvent. He said: I shall decide between you on the basis of the decision of the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم : If anyone becomes insolvent or dies and the man (the seller) finds his very property with him, he is more entitled to it (than others).

Narrated Abu Hurairah: The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم as saying: If anyone becomes insolvent and the man (i. e. creditor) finds his very property with him, he is more entitled to it than anyone else.

Narrated Abu Bakr ibn Abdur Rahman ibn al-Harith ibn Hisham: The Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم said: If a man sells (his) property and the man who buys it becomes insolvent, and the seller does not receive the price of the property he had sold, but finds his very property with him (i. e. the buyer), he is more entitled to it (than others). If the buyer dies, then the owner of the property is equal to the creditors.
