Question:
A man borrowed from another and told him, "I will return it to you when my salary comes in," but his salary was delayed for five months. He asks: Is there anything required of me in this?
Answer:
You are excused as long as it was delayed and you had nothing with which to pay it back. You are excused in this. Look at your ability to pay, yes.
