[Machine] Mu'adh ibn Jabal was among the best people in appearance, best in manners, and most forgiving. He was very religious, so his debts became heavy on him until he secluded himself from people for several days in his house. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ wanted to pay off his debts, so he sent a messenger to Mu'adh to summon him. Mu'adh came with his creditors and they said, "O Messenger of Allah, take our rights from him." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "May Allah have mercy on those who give charity to others." Some people gave their rights up, while others refused. They said, "O Messenger of Allah, take our rights from him." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Be patient with them, O Mu'adh, and you have no other option." Mu'adh then went to Banu Salamah, and someone said to him, "O Abu Abdur Rahman, if you had asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , you would not have become destitute today." Mu'adh replied, "I would not have asked him." He remained there for some time until the Messenger of Allah ﷺ called him and sent him to Yemen, saying, "Perhaps Allah will relieve you of your debt and fulfill it for you." Mu'adh went to Yemen and remained there until the Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed away. During the year in which Umar ibn al-Khattab performed Hajj, he assigned Mu'adh as his deputy for Hajj. They met on the day of Tarwiyah and embraced Islam. Each of them comforted the other with the companionship of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . Then they went to the ground and conversed. Umar saw young boys with Mu'adh and asked, "Who are these?" Then he mentioned the words that have been omitted from the summary due to their weakness.
