Hadith 1707
The Hadeeth of 'Abdur-Rahman bin Abi Bakr
It was narrated that "Abdur Rahman bin Abi Bakr said: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:
"Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, will call the debtor on the Day of Resurrection and make him stand before Him, then He will say: O My slave, how did you dispose of the people"s money? He will say: O Lord, You know that I did not squander it: rather it was lost in a flood or a fire, or it was stolen or lost (in trade). Then Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, will call for something and will put it in his balance, and his good deeds will outweigh it.”
