[AI] The Prophet ﷺ was visited by a woman who said, "O Messenger of Allah, my mother has made a vow to fast for a month, but she passed away before being able to fulfill it." He asked her, "If your mother had a debt, would you pay it on her behalf?" She replied, "Yes." He said, "The debt owed to Allah is even more deserving to be paid."

أَتَتِ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ امْرَأَةٌ فَقَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ أُمِّي نَذَرَتْ أَنْ تَصُومَ شَهْرًا وَإِنَّهَا تُوُفِّيَتْ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَصُومَ قَالَ «أَرَأَيْتِ لَوْ كَانَ عَلَى أُمِّكِ دَيْنٌ أَكُنْتِ قَاضِيَةً؟» قَالَتْ نَعَمْ قَالَ «دَيْنُ اللهِ أَحَقُّ أَنْ يُقْضَى»

[AI] "O Messenger of Allah, my sister vowed to perform Hajj but she passed away before she could fulfill her vow. He said, "Do you think if your sister had a debt, would you pay it off?" He said, "Yes." He said, "So the debt owed to Allah is more deserving to be paid off for your sister's Hajj."

يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ أُخْتِي نَذَرَتْ أَنْ تَحُجَّ وَمَاتَتْ وَلَمْ تَحُجَّ قَالَ «أَرَأَيْتَ لَوْ كَانَ عَلَى أُخْتِكَ دَيْنٌ أَكُنْتَ تَقْضِيهِ؟» قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ «فَدَيْنُ اللهِ أَحَقُّ أَنْ يُقْضَى حُجَّ عَنْ أُخْتِكَ»

[AI] A woman from Juheinah came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "My mother made a vow to perform Hajj but she died before being able to do so. Should I perform Hajj on her behalf?" He asked, "If your mother had a debt, would you pay it off?" She replied, "Yes." He then said, "Perform Hajj on her behalf and pay her debt off, for Allah is more deserving of fulfillment."

أَنَّ امْرَأَةً مِنْ جُهَيْنَةَ جَاءَتْ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَتْ إِنَّ أُمِّي نَذَرَتْ أَنْ تَحُجَّ وَلَمْ تَحُجَّ حَتَّى مَاتَتْ أَفَأَحُجُّ عَنْهَا؟ قَالَ «أَرَأَيْتِ لَوْ كَانَ عَلَى أُمِّكِ دَيْنٌ كُنْتِ قَاضِيَتَهُ؟» قَالَتْ نَعَمْ قَالَ «فَحُجِّي عَنْهَا وَاقْضِي الَّذِي عَلَيْهَا فَإِنَّ اللهَ ﷻ أَحَقُّ بِالْوَفَاءِ»

[AI] A woman came from Juhaynah to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, my mother has died without performing Hajj. Should I perform Hajj on her behalf?" He asked her, "If your mother had a debt, would you fulfill it for her?" She replied, "Yes." He said, "Then surely the debt owed to Allah is more deserving to be fulfilled."

أَتَتِ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْ جُهَيْنَةَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ أُمِّي مَاتَتْ وَلَمْ تَحُجَّ أَفَأَحُجُّ عَنْهَا؟ قَالَ «أَرَأَيْتِ لَوْ كَانَ عَلَى أُمُّكِ دَيْنٌ فَقَضَيْتِهِ أَوَفِي ذَلِكَ عَنْهَا؟» قَالَتْ نَعَمْ قَالَ «فَدَيْنُ اللهِ أَحَقُّ أَنْ يُقْضَى»

A woman came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said: My mother has died, and fasts of a month are due from her. Thereupon he said: Don't you see that if debt was due from her, would you not pay it? She said: Yes (I would pay on her behalf). Thereupon he said: The debt of Allah deserves its payment more than (the payment of anyone else). (Using translation from Muslim 1148a)

جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ إِنَّ أُمِّي مَاتَتْ وَعَلَيْهَا صَوْمُ شَهْرٍ أَفَأَصُومُ عَنْهَا؟ فَقَالَ «أَرَأَيْتَ لَوْ كَانَ عَلَيْهَا دَيْنٌ أَكُنْتَ تَقْضِيهِ؟» قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ «فَدَيْنُ اللهِ أَحَقُّ أَنْ يُقْضَى»

A man came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said: Messenger of Allah, my mother has died (in a state) that she had to observe fasts of a month (of Ramadan). Should I complete (them) on her behalf? thereupon he (the Holy Prophet) said: Would you not pay the debt if your mother had died (without paying it)? He said: Yes. He (the Holy Prophet) said: The debt of Allah deserves more that it should he paid. (Using translation from Muslim 1148b)

جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ أُمِّي مَاتَتْ وَعَلَيْهَا صَوْمُ شَهْرٍ أَفَأَقْضِيهِ عَنْهَا؟ قَالَ «لَوْ كَانَ عَلَى أُمِّكَ دَيْنٌ كُنْتَ قَاضِيَهُ عَنْهَا؟» قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ «فَدَيْنُ اللهِ أَحَقُّ أَنْ يُقْضَى» قَالَ سُلَيْمَانُ فَقَالَ الْحَكَمُ وَسَلَمَةُ بْنُ كُهَيْلٍ وَنَحْنُ جَمِيعًا جُلُوسٌ حَيْثُ حَدَّثَ مُسْلِمٌ بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ فَقَالَا سَمِعْنَا مُجَاهِدًا يَذْكُرُهَا عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ

“A woman came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, my sister has died and she owed a fast of two consecutive months.’ He said: ‘Do you not think that if your sister owed a debt, you would pay it off for her?’ She said: ‘Of course.’ He said: ‘The right of Allah is greater.’” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 1758)

جَاءَتِ امْرَأَةٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَتْ إِنَّ أُخْتِي مَاتَتْ وَعَلَيْهَا صِيَامُ شَهْرَيْنِ مُتَتَابِعَيْنِ قَالَ «أَرَأَيْتِ لَوْ كَانَ عَلَى أُخْتَكِ دَيْنٌ أَكُنْتِ تَقْضِينَهُ؟» قَالَتْ نَعَمْ قَالَ «فَحَقُّ اللهِ أَحَقُّ»

A woman came to the Prophet ﷺ and said (to him) that one month's fast was due from her mother who had died. May I fulfill them on her behalf? He asked: Suppose some debt was due from your mother, would you pay it ? She replied: Yes. He said: So the debt due to Allah is the one which most deserves to be paid. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 3310)

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهُ أَتَتْهُ امْرَأَةٌ فَقَالَتْ إِنَّ أُمِّي مَاتَتْ وَعَلَيْهَا صَوْمُ شَهْرٍ أَفَأَقْضِيهِ عَنْهَا؟ قَالَ «أَرَأَيْتِ لَوْ كَانَ عَلَيْهَا دَيْنٌ أَكُنْتِ تَقْضِينَهُ؟» قَالَتْ نَعَمْ قَالَ «فَدَيْنُ اللهِ أَحَقُّ أَنْ يُقْضَى»

[AI] A man came to the prophet ﷺ and said, "Indeed, my mother has passed away and she has a month of fasting owed. Should I fast on her behalf?" He (the prophet) said, "Do you think if she had a debt, would you fulfill it for her? So, the debt of Allah deserves to be fulfilled." Sulaiman narrated to me this hadith from Salamah bin Kuhayl, and Al-Hakam also narrated the same from Ibn Abbas.

جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ إِنَّ أُمِّي مَاتَتْ وَعَلَيْهَا صَوْمُ شَهْرٍ أَفَأَقْضِي عَنْهَا قَالَ «أَرَأَيْتِ لَوْ كَانَ عَلَيْهَا دَيْنٌ أَكُنْتَ تَقْضِيهِ؟ فَدَيْنُ اللهِ أَحَقُّ أَنْ يُقْضَى» قَالَ سُلَيْمَانُ وَحَدَّثَنِيهِ سَلَمَةُ بْنُ كُهَيْلٍ وَالْحَكَمُ بِمِثْلِ ذَلِكَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ

a woman vowed to perform Hajj but she died. Her brother came to the Prophet and asked him about that, he said: 'Do yhou think that if your sister owed a debt you wouold pay it off?' He said: 'Yes.' He said: 'Then fulfill the right of Allah, for He is more deserving that His rights should be fulfilled.''' (Using translation from Nasāʾī 2632)

أَنْ تَحُجَّ فَمَاتَتْ فَأَتَى أَخُوهَا النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَسَأَلَهُ عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ «أَرَأَيْتَ لَوْ كَانَ عَلَى أُخْتِكَ دَيْنٌ أَكُنْتَ قَاضِيَهُ؟» قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ «فَاقْضُوا اللهَ فَهُوَ أَحَقُّ بِالْوَفَاءِ»

"A man said: 'O Messenger of Allah! My father has died and he did not perform Hajj; shall I perform Hajj on his behalf?' He said: 'Don't you think that if your father owed a debt you would pay it off?' The man said: 'Yes.' He said: 'The debt owed to Allah is more deserving (of being paid off)."' (Using translation from Nasāʾī 2639)

قَالَ رَجُلٌ يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ إِنَّ أَبِي مَاتَ وَلَمْ يَحُجَّ أَفَأَحُجُّ عَنْهُ؟ قَالَ «أَرَأَيْتَ لَوْ كَانَ عَلَى أَبِيكَ دَيْنٌ أَكُنْتَ قَاضِيَهُ؟» قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ «فَدَيْنُ اللهِ أَحَقُّ»

"أَرأيتَ لو كَان على أبيك دينٌ أكنْت قاضيه؟ قال: نعم، قال: فدين الله أحقُّ أَن يُقْضى ".

"أَرَأيتَ لوْ كان على أَبِيكَ دَينُ فقضيتَهُ أَقُضِى عنه؟ قال: نعم، قال حُجَّ عَنْ أبيك".

"عَنْ بُرَيْدَةَ: أَنَّ امْرَاةً أَتَتِ النَّبِىَّ ﷺ فَقَالَتْ: يَارَسُولَ اللهِ! إَنَّ أُمِّى مَاتَتْ وَلَمْ تَحُجَّ فَيُجْزِى عَلَىَّ أَنْ أَحُجَّ عَنْهَا؟ قَالَ: أَرَأَيْتِ لَوْ كَانَ عَلَى أُمِّكِ دَيْنٌ فَقَضَيْتِهِ أَكَانَ يُجْزِى عَنْهَا؟ قَالَتْ: نَعَمْ. قَالَ: فَدَيْنُ اللهِ أَحَقُّ أَنْ يُقْضَى".

"عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَنَّ رَجُلًا قَالَ: يَا نَبِىَّ الله إِنَّ أبِى مَاتَ وَلَمْ يَحُجَ أَفَأحُجّ عَنْهُ؟ فَقَالَ النَّبِىُّ ﷺ : أَرَأيتَ أَن لَوْ كَانَ عَلَى أَبِيكَ دَيْنٌ أَكُنْتَ قَاضِيهُ؟ قَالَ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: فَحَقُ الله أَحَقُّ".

"عَنْ سَعِيد بْن جُيْرٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ: أَتَتِ النَّبِىَّ ﷺ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْ جهَيْنَةَ فَقَالَتْ: يَا رَسُولَ الله إِنَّ أُمَى مَاتَتْ وَلَمْ تَحُجَ أَفَأَحُجّ عَنْهَا؟ فَقَالَ: أرَأيْتِ

لَوْ كانَ عَلَى أُمِّكِ دَيْنٌ فَقَضَيْتِهِ أَكَانَ يَجْزِى عَنْهَا؟ قَالَتْ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: فَدَيْنُ الله أَحَقُّ أَنْ يُقْضَى".

" عَنْ سَوْدَةَ بِنْتِ زُمْعَةَ قَالَتْ: جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى رَسُول اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ! إِنَّ أَبِي شَيْخٌ كَبِيرٌ وَلَمْ يَحُجَّ، قَالَ: أَرَأَيْتَ لَوْ كَانَ عَلَى أَبِيكَ دَيْنٌ قَضَيْتَهُ عَنْهُ؟ قَالَ: نَعَمْ، فَإِنَّ اللهَ أَرْحَم، حُجَّ عَنْ أَبِيكَ".
