The ruling on the one who is entrusted with a deposit if he claims to have returned it

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : All right, my brother.

Answer : It is clear that his word is accepted. Because he took possession of it for the benefit of its owner, and the principle is that if a person takes possession of something for the benefit of its owner, his word is accepted regarding its return, because he is doing a good deed. And Allah the Exalted said:
There is not upon the doers of good any cause [for blame]مَا عَلَى الْمُحْسِنِينَ مِن سَبِيلٍ
[At-Tawbah 9:91]
