ʿAbdullah bin ʿAmr bin Haram died and was in debt to others. I asked the Prophet ﷺ to intercede with his creditors for some reduction in the debts. The Prophet ﷺ requested them (to reduce the debts) but they refused. The Prophet ﷺ said to me, "Go and put your dates (In heaps) according to their different kinds. The Ajwa on one side, the cluster of Ibn Zaid on another side, etc.. Then call me." I did that and called the Prophet ﷺ He came and sat at the head or in the middle of the heaps and ordered me. Measure (the dates) for the people (creditors)." I measured for them till I paid all the debts. My dates remained as it nothing had been taken from them. In other narrations, Jabir said; The Prophet ﷺ said, "He (i.e. ʿAbdullah) continued measuring for them till he paid all the debts." The Prophet ﷺ said (to ʿAbdullah), "Cut (clusters) for him (i.e. one of the creditors) and measure for him fully."  

تُوُفِّيَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَمْرِو بْنِ حَرَامٍ وَعَلَيْهِ دَيْنٌ فَاسْتَعَنْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ عَلَى غُرَمَائِهِ أَنْ يَضَعُوا مِنْ دَيْنِهِ فَطَلَبَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِلَيْهِمْ فَلَمْ يَفْعَلُوا فَقَالَ لِي النَّبِيُّ ﷺ اذْهَبْ فَصَنِّفْ تَمْرَكَ أَصْنَافًا الْعَجْوَةَ عَلَى حِدَةٍ وَعَذْقَ زَيْدٍ عَلَى حِدَةٍ ثُمَّ أَرْسِلْ إِلَىَّ فَفَعَلْتُ ثُمَّ أَرْسَلْتُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَجَلَسَ عَلَى أَعْلاَهُ أَوْ فِي وَسَطِهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ كِلْ لِلْقَوْمِ فَكِلْتُهُمْ حَتَّى أَوْفَيْتُهُمُ الَّذِي لَهُمْ وَبَقِيَ تَمْرِي كَأَنَّهُ لَمْ يَنْقُصْ مِنْهُ شَىْءٌ وَقَالَ فِرَاسٌ عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ حَدَّثَنِي جَابِرٌ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَمَا زَالَ يَكِيلُ لَهُمْ حَتَّى أَدَّاهُ وَقَالَ هِشَامٌ عَنْ وَهْبٍ عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ جُذَّ لَهُ فَأَوْفِ لَهُ  

"Abdullah bin 'Amr bin Haram died, leaving behind debts. I asked the Messenger of Allah to intercede with his creditors so that they would waive part of the debt. He asked them to do that but they refused. The Prophet said to me: 'Go and sort your dates into their different kinds: The 'Ajwah on one side, the cluster of Ibn Zaid on another side, and so on. Then send for me.' I did that, then the Messenger of Allah came and sat at the head or in the middle of the heaps. Then he said: 'Measure them out for the people.' So I measured them out for them until I had paid them all off, and my dates were left as if nothing had been taken from them." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3638)   

تُوُفِّيَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عَمْرِو بْنِ حَرَامٍ يَعْنِي أَبَاهُ أَوْ اسْتُشْهِدَ وَعَلَيْهِ دَيْنٌ فَاسْتَعَنْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى غُرَمَائِهِ أَنْ يَضَعُوا مِنْ دَيْنِهِ شَيْئًا فَطَلَبَ إِلَيْهِمْ فَأَبَوْا فَقَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ اذْهَبْ فَصَنِّفْ تَمْرَكَ أَصْنَافًا الْعَجْوَةَ عَلَى حِدَةٍ وَعِذْقَ زَيْدٍ عَلَى حِدَةٍ وَأَصْنَافَهُ ثُمَّ ابْعَثْ إِلَيَّ قَالَ فَفَعَلْتُ فَجَاءَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَجَلَسَ عَلَى أَعْلَاهُ أَوْ فِي وَسَطِهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ كِلْ لِلْقَوْمِ قَالَ فَكِلْتُ لِلْقَوْمِ حَتَّى أَوْفَيْتُهُمْ وَبَقِيَ تَمْرِي كَأَنَّهُ لَمْ يَنْقُصْ مِنْهُ شَيْءٌ

وَتَرَكَ دَيْنًا فَاسْتَشْفَعْتُ بِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى غُرَمَائِهِ أَنْ يَضَعُوا مِنْ دَيْنِهِ شَيْئًا فَطَلَبَ إِلَيْهِمْ فَأَبَوْا فَقَالَ لِي النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «اذْهَبْ فَصَنِّفْ تَمْرَكَ أَصْنَافًا الْعَجْوَةَ عَلَى حِدَةٍ وَعِذْقَ زَيْدٍ عَلَى حِدَةٍ وَأَصْنَافَهُ ثُمَّ ابْعَثْ إِلَيَّ» قَالَ فَفَعَلْتُ قَالَ فَجَاءَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَجَلَسَ فِي الْعُلَا أَوْ فِي أَوْسَطِهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ «كِلْ لِلْقَوْمِ» قَالَ فَكِلْتُ لَهُمْ حَتَّى أَوْفَيْتَهُمْ وَبَقِيَ تَمْرِي كَأَنْ لَمْ يَنْقُصْ مِنْهُ شَيْءٌ
