‏قال رسول الله ‏ ‏صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ ‏تلقت الملائكة روح رجل ممن كان قبلكم فقالوا أعملت من الخير شيئا قال لا قالوا تذكر قال كنت أداين الناس فآمر فتياني أن ‏ ‏ينظروا ‏ ‏المعسر ‏ ‏ويتجوزوا ‏ ‏عن الموسر قال قال الله عز وجل ‏ ‏تجوزوا ‏ ‏عنه
 

Hudhaifah, may Allah be pleased with him, reported:
Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) said: The angels took away the soul of a person who had lived among people who were before you. They (the angels) said: Did you do anything good? He said: No. They said: Try to recall. He said: I used to lend to people and order my servants to give respite to one in straitened circumstances and give allowance to the solvent. Thereupon, Allah, the Exalted and Majestic, said (to the angels): Give him allowance (I forgive him).
