he demanded payment owed by Ibn Abi Hadrad in the mosque. Their voices became so loud that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ heard them when he was in his house. He came out and called Ka'b who said: “Here I am, O Messenger of Allah ﷺ!” He said: “Waive this much of your loan,” and gestured with his hand to indicate half. He said: “I will do that,” and he said: “Get up and repay it.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 2429)   

أَنَّهُ تَقَاضَى مِنَ ابْنِ أَبِي حَدْرَدٍ دَيْنًا كَانَ لَهُ عَلَيْهِ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَارْتَفَعَتْ أَصْوَاتُهُمَا حَتَّى سَمِعَهَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَهُوَ فِي بَيْتِهِ فَخَرَجَ إِلَيْهِمَا فَنَادَى «يَا كَعْبُ» قَالَ لَبَّيْكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ «ضَعْ مِنْ دَيْنِكَ فَأَوْمَأَ إِلَيْهِ أَيِ الشَّطْرَ» قَالَ قَدْ فَعَلْتُ قَالَ «قُمْ فَاقْضِهِ»
