Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ كُهَيْلٍ، سَمِعْتُ أَبَا سَلَمَةَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ أَنَّ رَجُلاً، أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَتَقَاضَاهُ، فَأَغْلَظَ، فَهَمَّ بِهِ أَصْحَابُهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وس
لم " دَعُوهُ فَإِنَّ لِصَاحِبِ الْحَقِّ مَقَالاً ". ثُمَّ قَالَ " أَعْطُوهُ سِنًّا مِثْلَ سِنِّهِ ". قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ لاَ نَجِدُ إِلاَّ أَمْثَلَ مِنْ سِنِّهِ. فَقَالَ " أَعْطُوهُ فَإِنَّ مِنْ خَيْرِكُمْ أَحْسَنَكُمْ قَضَاءً ".

English Translation
Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that a man came to the Prophet ﷺ demanding his debts and behaved rudely. The companions of the Prophet ﷺ intended to harm him, but Allah's Messenger ﷺ said (to them), "Leave him, for the creditor (i.e. owner of a right) has the right to speak." Allah's Messenger ﷺ then said, "Give him a camel of the same age as that of his." The people said, "O Allah's Messenger ﷺ! There is only a camel that is older than his." Allah's Messenger ﷺ said, "Give (it to) him, for the best amongst you is he who pays the rights of others handsomely
