حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ عُقَيْلٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم كَانَ يُؤْتَى بِالرَّجُلِ الْمُتَوَفَّى عَلَيْهِ الدَّيْنُ فَيَسْأَلُ ‏"‏ هَلْ تَرَكَ لِدَيْنِهِ فَضْلاً ‏"‏. فَإِنْ حُدِّثَ أَنَّهُ تَرَكَ لِدَيْنِهِ وَفَاءً صَلَّى، وَإِلاَّ قَالَ لِلْمُسْلِمِينَ ‏"‏ صَلُّوا عَلَى صَاحِبِكُمْ ‏"‏. فَلَمَّا فَتَحَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ الْفُتُوحَ قَالَ ‏"‏ أَنَا أَوْلَى بِالْمُؤْمِنِينَ مِنْ أَنْفُسِهِمْ، فَمَنْ تُوُفِّيَ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ فَتَرَكَ دَيْنًا فَعَلَىَّ قَضَاؤُهُ، وَمَنْ تَرَكَ مَالاً فَلِوَرَثَتِهِ ‏"‏.

Narrator: Abu Huraira

English translation
Narrated Abu Huraira: Whenever a dead man in debt was brought to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) he would ask, "Has he left anything to repay his debt?" If he was informed that he had left something to repay his debts, he would offer his funeral prayer, otherwise he would tell the Muslims to offer their friend's funeral prayer. When Allah made the Prophet (ﷺ) wealthy through conquests, he said, "I am more rightful than other believers to be the guardian of the believers, so if a Muslim dies while in debt, I am responsible for the repayment of his debt, and whoever leaves wealth (after his death) it will belong to his heirs
বাংলা অনুবাদ
আবূ হুরাইরাহ (রাঃ) হতে বর্ণিত যে, আল্লাহর রাসূল সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম -এর নিকট যখন কোন ঋণী ব্যক্তির জানাযা উপস্থিত করা হত তখন তিনি জিজ্ঞেস করতেন, সে তার ঋণ পরিশোধের জন্য অতিরিক্ত মাল রেখে গেছে কি? যদি তাঁকে বলা হত যে, সে তার ঋণ পরিশোধের মতো মাল রেখে গেছে তখন তার জানাযার সালাত আদায় করতেন। নতুবা বলতেন, তোমাদের সাথীর জানাযা আদায় করে নাও। পরবর্তীতে যখন আল্লাহ তাঁর বিজয়ের দ্বার উন্মুক্ত করে দেন, তখন তিনি বললেন, আমি মু’মিনদের জন্য তাদের নিজের চেয়েও অধিক নিকটবর্তী। তাই কোন মু’মিন ঋণ রেখে মারা গেলে সে ঋণ পরিশোধ করার দায়িত্ব আমার। আর যে ব্যক্তি সম্পদ রেখে যায়, সে সম্পদ তার উত্তরাধিকারীদের জন্য। (২৩৯৮, ২৩৯৯, ৪৭৮১, ৫৩৭১, ৬৭৩১, ৬৭৪৫, ৬৭৬৩, মুসলিম ২৩/৪, হাঃ ১৬১৯, আহমাদ ৯৮৫৫) (আধুনিক প্রকাশনীঃ ২১৩৪, ইসলামিক ফাউন্ডেশনঃ)
