"I heard 'Irbad bin Sariyah say: 'I was with the Prophet ﷺ and a Bedouin said: "Pay me back for my young camel, and he gave him an older (i.e., better) camel." He said: 'O Messenger of Allah! It is older (i.e., better) than my camel.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'The best of people are those who are best in repaying."'  

ابن ماجة:٢٢٨٦حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا زَيْدُ بْنُ الْحُبَابِ حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ حَدَّثَنِي سَعِيدُ بْنُ هَانِئٍ قَالَ

سَمِعْتُ الْعِرْبَاضَ بْنَ سَارِيَةَ يَقُولُ كُنْتُ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ أَعْرَابِيٌّ اقْضِنِي بَكْرِي فَأَعْطَاهُ بَعِيرًا مُسِنًّا فَقَالَ الأَعْرَابِيُّ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ هَذَا أَسَنُّ مِنْ بَعِيرِي فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ خَيْرُ النَّاسِ خَيْرُهُمْ قَضَاءً
