English Translation
It was narrated from Abu Hurayra (رضي الله عنه) — via Sufyan, from Abu al-Zinad, from al-A'raj — [when asked if it was from the Prophet ﷺ, Sufyan said yes]: 'Procrastination in debt repayment by a wealthy man is injustice [zulm]. And when one of you is assigned [his claim] to a solvent and capable person [mali'], let him accept the transfer [follow it through].'
