59. Sympathy

أَبَا قَتَادَةَ …قال فَإِنِّي سمعت رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يقول من سَرَّهُ أَنْ يُنْجِيَهُ الله من كُرَبِ يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ فَلْيُنَفِّسْ عن مُعْسِرٍ أو يَضَعْ عنه

Abu Qatadah (rta) reported: “… I heard God’s Messenger (sws) as saying: “He who likes that God deliver a person from the suffering of the Day of Judgement should give respite to a poor borrower or reduce the burden of loan from him.”[1]
