Yahya related to me from Malik from Zayd ibn Aslam from Ata ibn
Yasar that Abu Rafi, the mawla of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, said, "The Messenger of Allah, may
Allah bless him and grant him peace, borrowed a young camel and then
the camels of sadaqa came to him." Abu Rafi said, "He ordered me to
repay the man his young camel. I said, 'I can only find a good camel
in its seventh year in the camels.' The Messenger of Allah, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, said, 'Give it to him. The best of
people are those who discharge their debts in the best manner.' "

said, "Abdullah ibn Umar borrowed some dirhams from a man, then he
discharged his debt with dirhams better than them. The man said, 'Abu
Abdar-Rahman. These are better than the dirhams which I lent you.'
Abdullah ibn Umar said, 'I know that. But I am happy with myself about
that.' "
