Ungraded
Arabic Text
وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْمَطْلُ ظُلْمُ الْغَنِيِّ وَإِذَا أُتْبِعَ أَحَدُكُمْ عَلَى مَلِيءٍ فَلْيَتْبَعْ
English Translation
And [via the same chain, it was also narrated from Abu Hurayra (رضي الله عنه) that] the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Procrastination [in repaying debt] by the wealthy is injustice. And when one of you is transferred [in payment] to a solvent person, let him follow [accept the transfer].'
