Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it established that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) placed a financial restriction on the wealth of some of the Companions because of their inability to pay off their debts?
Answer:
Yes, because of his inability to pay, for he restricted him due to the smallness of what he had and the greatness of the debt upon him. Yes, he placed a restriction on Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him). His creditors, if what a person has is less than his debts, and the creditors have demanded their rights, then he is placed under restriction. Yes. And Allah the Exalted knows best, and may Allah send prayers and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and his Companions.
