Question:
May Allah bless you. The brother Hamid Sadiq from Yemen says: I am always thinking about the saying of Allah the Exalted:[Az-Zalzalah 99:8] He asks: Will Allah hold us accountable for some small debts that we were unable to repay due to our harsh circumstances, such as ten riyals or five riyals?
Answer:
The rights of people must be paid to them. However, if you are unable to do so at certain times, you postpone it to another time when you are able to repay and pay the money to its owners. Yes.
