“At the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, a man suffered loss of some fruit that he had purchase, and his debts increased. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Give him charity.' So the people gave him charity, but that was not enough to pay off his debts. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “Take what you find, but you have no right to more than that, meaning his creditors.”
أُصِيبَ رَجُلٌ فِي عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي ثِمَارٍ ابْتَاعَهَا فَكَثُرَ دَيْنُهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ تَصَدَّقُوا عَلَيْهِ فَتَصَدَّقَ النَّاسُ عَلَيْهِ فَلَمْ يَبْلُغْ ذَلِكَ وَفَاءَ دَيْنِهِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ خُذُوا مَا وَجَدْتُمْ وَلَيْسَ لَكُمْ إِلاَّ ذَلِكَ يَعْنِي الْغُرَمَاءَ
