Bulugh al-Maram

It also has another Mawquf (saying of a Companion) narration from 'Abdullah bin Salam (RA) reported by al-Bukhari.

We heard Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) say: "If a creditor finds his very property with a debtor who becomes bankrupt, he is more entitled to it than anyone else." .

"If anyone sells some goods (on credit) and the one who buys them becomes bankrupt, and the seller does not recover any of the price of his goods, and he then finds his very goods (with him), he is more entitled to them (than anyone else). However, if the buyer dies, the owner of the goods finds his actual goods he has most right to them."

al-Baihaqi reported it with a full chain of narrators but graded it weak, following Abu Dawud.

"We went to Abu Hurairah (RA) regarding a friend of ours who was bankrupt. He said, "I shall certainly pronounce judgment about him in accordance with the judgement of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ). Whoever becomes bankrupt or dies, and a person finds his actual goods (remaining with that man), he has most right to them.'" .

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said: "Delay in payment on the part of one who possesses the means, makes it lawful to dishonor and punish him." .

In the time of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) a man suffered a loss affecting fruits he had bought, owed a large debt and became bankrupt. So, Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said to the people, "Give him Sadaqah (charity)." Hence, the people gave him charity. However, that was not enough to repay his debt in full. Therefore, Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said to the creditors, "Take whatever you find, and you will have nothing other than that." .

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) seized the wealth of Mu'adh and sold it in return for a debt he was indebted for. .

I was brought before the Prophet (ﷺ) on the Day of Uhud when I Was fourteen years old, but he did not give me permission (to fight). I was afterwards brought to him on the Day of al-Khandaq (the Battle of Trench) when I was fifteen years of age, and he gave me permission (to fight). .

"He did not give me permission (to fight), and did not consider me has having attained puberty." .

We were brought before the Prophet (ﷺ) on the day of Quraizah. Those who had began to grow hair (on their private parts) were killed, while who had not, were set free. I was among those who had not begun to grow hair, so I was set free. .

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said: "It is not permissible to give a gift without her husband's permission."

"It is not permissible for a woman to dispose anything of her wealth if her husband is responsible for her." .

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said: "Begging is not lawful except to one of three (people): a man who has become a guarantor for a payment, for whom begging is lawful till he gets it, after which he must stop begging; a man whose wealth has been destroyed by a calamity which has befallen him, for whom begging is lawful till he gets what will support life; and a man who has been struck by poverty, the genuineness of which is confirmed by three intelligent members of his people, so it is lawful for him to beg." .

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said: "Reconciliation is permissible between Muslims, except one which makes unlawful something which is lawful, or makes lawful something which is unlawful; and Muslims must abide by their conditions (which they have made), except for a condition which makes unlawful something which is lawful, or makes lawful something which is unlawful." . However, the Hadith scholars criticized him (for grading this Hadith as Sahih) because the narration of Kathir bin 'Abdullah bin 'Amr bin 'Auf is weak. It is as though at-Tirmidhi considered it (reliable) due to its many chains of narration. Ibn Hibban declared the aforesaid Hadith to be Sahih (authentic) from the narration of Abu Hurairah (RA).

The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "One must not prevent his neighbor from fixing a wooden peg in his wall." Abu Hurairah (RA) then said, "Why do I see you turning away (averse to this Sunnah)? I swear by Allah that I will always narrate it to you." .

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said: "It is not lawful for a person to take his brother's stick except if he is pleased with such." .

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said: "Delay in payment by a rich man is injustice. So, if one of you is referred for payment to a wealthy man he should accept the reference." .

"And if anyone is referred to another, let him accept that."

A man from among us died, so we washed, embalmed and shrouded him. We then brought him to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) 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) (ﷺ) and Abu Qatada (RA) said: "I shall discharge the two Dinars." Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) thereupon said, " a right to the creditor; and the dead man will then be free from them?" He replied, "Yes." So, he prayed over him. .

A man who had died in debt would be brought to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and he would ask, "Has he left anything to discharge his debt?" If he was told that he left enough he would pray over him. Otherwise, he would say, "Pray over your companion." Then, when Allah brought the conquests (of other lands) at his hands he said, "I am closer to the believers than their own selves. So, whoever dies leaving a debt, the responsibility for repaying it shall be upon me." .

"Whoever dies and leavings nothing to discharge his debt..."

"Ammar, Sa'd and I agrred to be partners in whatever we would get (from the spoils of war) on the day of Badr." The narrator quoted the rest of the Hadith which concludes: "Then Sa'd brought two captives, but neither Ammar nor I brought anything." .

I intended to go to Khaibar, so I went to the Prophet (ﷺ) and he said, "When you meet my agent at Khaibar take fifteen Wasq (of dates) from him." .

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said: "The hand (which takes) is responsible for what it has taken till it returns it." .

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said: "Give back what has been entrusted (to you) to him who has entrusted you, and do not violate the trust of him who violates your trust." .

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said to me, "When my messengers come to you, give them thirty coats of armor." I asked, "O Allah's Messenger, is it a loan with a guarantee (of its return), or a borrowed object that must be returned?" He replied, "No, it is a borrowed object that must be returned." .

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said: "If anyone takes a span of land unjustly, on the Day of Resurrection Allah will strangle him with it from seven earths." .

The Prophet (ﷺ) was with one of his wives when one of the Mothers of the Believers (another of his wives) sent a bowl containing food with a servant of hers. Then, she (in whose house he was) struck it with her hand and the bowl was broken.

The Prophet (ﷺ) then said, "Food for food, and a vessel for a vessel." .

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said: "Whoever sows in the land of a people without their permission, he has no right to any of the crop. However, he is entitled to what he spent on it." [Reported by Ahmad and al-Arba'a except an-Nasa'i. at-Tirmidhi graded it Hasan (good).

It has been said that al-Bukhari graded it Da'if (weak).

A man among the Companions of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said: "Two men brought a dispute before Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) concerning a land in which one of them had planted palm trees and the land belonged to the other.

[Reported by Abu Dawud and its chain of narrators is Hasan (good). The last (quoted) part of the aforesaid Hadith is found in the books of the collections of as-Sunan, from 'Urwa's narration on the authority of Sa'id bin Zaid.

However, there is disagreement regarding whether it is Mawsul (an unbroken chain) or Mursal (missing link after the Tabi'i) as well as the determination of the name of the Companion who heard it from the Prophet (ﷺ).
