Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: I have debts that I am unable to repay, and some of those who have a claim on me, I do not know how to reach them. He asks: What is the Shari'ah-compliant way to get rid of this?

Answer:
Announce that anyone who has a right or a debt against so-and-so should come to such-and-such a place.
