Volume 3, Book 34, Number 291:
Narrated Hudhaifa:
The Prophet said, “Before your time the angels received the soul of a man and asked him, ‘Did you
do any good deeds (in your life)?’ He replied, ‘I used to order my employees to grant time to the rich
person to pay his debts at his convenience.’ So Allah said to the angels; “Excuse him.” Rabi said that
(the dead man said), ‘I used to be easy to the rich and grant time to the poor.’ Or, in another narra –
tion, ‘grant time to the well-off and forgive the needy,’ or, ‘accept from the well-off and forgive the
needy.’
