ذِكْرُ إِظْلَالِ اللَّهِ جَلَّ وَعَلَا فِي الْقِيَامَةِ فِي ظِلِّهِ مَنْ أَنْظَرَ مُعْسِرًا أَوْ وَضَعَ لَهُ

[Machine] I and my father went out to seek knowledge in this neighborhood from the Ansar before they perish. The first person we met was Abu Al-Yasir, the companion of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , and with him was his son. Abu Al-Yasir was wearing a cloak, as were his guests, and his son was also wearing a cloak. My father said to him, "I see anger on your face." He replied, "Indeed, I had some wealth that belonged to so-and-so, the thief. So I went to his family and asked them, 'Is it accepted?' They said, 'No.' Then his son came out to me, so I asked him, 'Where is your father?' He said, 'He heard your voice and came out. I told him to come out, for I knew where you were.' Then he came out and I asked him, 'What made you hide?' He said, 'I swear by Allah, I wanted to talk to you and not lie to you. I was afraid that if I spoke to you, I would then lie to you and break my promise. And you were the companion of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , and by Allah, I was in a difficult situation.' I asked, 'By Allah?' He replied, 'By Allah.' I asked again, 'By Allah?' He replied, 'By Allah.' Then he reached for his scriptures and erased them. He said, 'If you find a just cause, then judge accordingly. Otherwise, you are in a permissible state. I bear witness with my eyes to this oath, and my heart confirms it.' He pointed to the veins on his chest and said, 'I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, "Whoever protects the rights of a debtor in financial difficulty, Allah will protect him in His shade."'

[Machine] "I went out with my father seeking knowledge in this neighborhood from the Ansar before they die. The first person we met was Abu Al-Yasar Al-Sulami, the companion of the Prophet ﷺ, accompanied by his son. They both wore a cloak, and his son had a cloak as well. They were carrying a Muṣḥaf (copy of the Qur'an), so my father said to him, 'I see something of anger on your face.' He said, 'Yes, I had some money from so and so, the thief. So I went to his family and asked, 'Is he guilty?' They said, 'No.' So Ali, his son, came out and I asked him, 'Where is your father?' He said, 'He overheard your talk, so he went into my mother's room.' So I said, 'Come out to me, for I know where you are.' He came out to me and I said, 'What made you hide from me?' He said, 'I swear by Allah, I will tell you the truth, and I will not lie to you. I feared by Allah that I would tell you a story and then lie to you or promise you something and then break my promise. I used to be a companion of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and by Allah, I was in hardship.' He said, 'By Allah?' I said, 'Yes, by Allah.' He said, 'By Allah?' I said, 'Yes, by Allah.' He said, 'By Allah?' I said, 'Yes, by Allah.' So I forgot the page and erased the truth, and I said, 'If you find a verdict, then judge accordingly. Otherwise, you are free.' I bear witness with my two eyes and he put his fingers on his eyes, and I heard with my two ears and he put his fingers in his ears, and my heart felt it, and he pointed to his heart, that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Whoever looks after a person with a disability or treats him kindly, Allah will shade him on the Day when there is no shade except His shade.'"

[Machine] I went out with my father to seek knowledge in this neighborhood from the Ansar before they perish. The first person we met was Abu Al-Yasar Al-Sulami, a companion of the Prophet ﷺ. He had a servant boy with him, wearing a cloak, and his servant also wore a cloak. He had a turban and a wrapped copy of the Quran. My father said to him, "I see a mark of anger on your face." He said, "Yes, I had some money that belonged to Fulan bin Fulan, the thief. So, I went to his family and asked them if he had sinned. They said no. Ali, his son with a limp, came out, and I asked him where his father was. He said he heard what I said, so he hid in my mother's closet. I told him to come out because I knew where he was. He came out, and I asked him what made him hide from me. He said, 'I swear by Allah, I will speak to you, and I will not lie to you. I was afraid that if I spoke to you, I would lie to you or break my promise.' And I used to be the companion of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and, by Allah, I was in difficulty." He said, "By Allah?"

Then I forgot about the sheet, and I erased the truth and said, "If you find a verdict, then judge, otherwise you are in no obligation." He testified with his eyesight by pointing his fingers to his eyes, and he testified with his hearing by placing his fingers in his ears, and he testified with his heart by pointing to the area of his heart where the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever protects someone in a difficult situation or provides for him, Allah will shade him in His shade on the Day when there is no shade but His shade."

[Machine] My father and I went out seeking knowledge in this neighborhood from the Ansar before they passed away. The first person we met was Abu Al-Yasar, the companion of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . He had a young boy with him, as well as a bundle of papers. He had a cloak on his shoulder and his face showed signs of anger. My father said to him, "O uncle, I see anger in your face." Abu Al-Yasar replied, "Indeed, I had some money with Fulan ibn Fulan Al-Harami, so I went to his family to greet them. I asked about him, and they said he was not here. Then his young son came out, and I asked him, 'Where is your father?' He said, 'He heard your voice, so he went into my mother's closet.' I said, 'Come out to me, for I know where you are.' He came out, and I asked him, 'What made you hide from me?' He said, 'I swear by Allah, I wanted to talk to you, but I feared that I would lie to you or break my promise to you. And you were the companion of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , and I was a difficult person.' I said, 'By Allah,' He said, 'By Allah.' I said, 'By Allah.' He said, 'By Allah.' I said, 'By Allah.' He said, 'By Allah.' Then he brought his papers and erased them with his own hand and said, 'If you find any injustice, then judge me. Otherwise, you are in the right.' He placed his fingers on his eyes and said, 'I bear witness with my own sight.' He put his fingers on his ears and said, 'I hear with my own ears.' He touched his heart and said, 'This is my heart.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ pointed to the strings of his heart and said, 'Whoever shows kindness to a difficult person or helps him, Allah will shade him in His shade on the Day of Judgment.'
