Hadith #2324
Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو شِهَابٍ ، عَنْ عَمْرٍو ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ : فِي رَجُلٍ اعْتَرَفَ عِنْدَ مَوْتِهِ بِأَلْفِ دِ
رْهَمٍ لِرَجُلٍ، وَأَقَامَ آخَرُ بَيِّنَةً بِأَلْفِ دِرْهَمٍ، وَتَرَكَ الْمَيِّتُ أَلْفَ دِرْهَمٍ، فَقَالَ :" الْمَالُ بَيْنَهُمَا نِصْفَيْنِ، إِلَّا أَنْ يَكُونَ مُفْلِسًا، فَلَا يَجُوزُ إِقْرَارُهُ "

English Translation
It was narrated from al-Hasan (al-Basri) regarding a man who on his deathbed acknowledged a debt of one thousand dirhams to one person, while another person produced witnesses for a debt of one thousand dirhams, and the deceased left only one thousand dirhams: 'The estate is divided equally between them — unless the deceased was insolvent, in which case the acknowledgment (iqrar) is not valid.'
