أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ عَنْ الْأَعْرَجِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ عَنْ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ إِذَا أُتْبِعَ أَحَدُکُمْ عَلَی مَلِيئٍ فَلْيَتْبَعْ وَالظُّلْمُ مَطْلُ الْغَنِيِّ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 4703
It was narrated that Abu Hurairah said: “The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم said: ‘If one of you is referred to a rich man (to help repaY a debt), he should accept that referral, and (wrongdoing) is when a rich man takes a long time to repay a debt.” (Sahih)
