حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عُمَرَ ، أَخْبَرَنَا يُونُسُ ، عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ كَعْبٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَنَّهُ تَقَاضَى مِنَ ابْنِ أَبِي حَدْرَدٍ دَيْنًا كَانَ لَهُ عَلَيْهِ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ، فَارْتَفَعَتْ أَصْوَاتُهُمَا حَتَّى سَمِعَهَا النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ فِي بَيْتِهِ، فَخَرَجَ إِلَيْهِمَا، فَنَادَى : " يَا كَعْبُ ".
قَالَ : لَبَّيْكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ.
فَقَالَ :" ضَعْ مِنْ دَيْنِكَ فَأَوْمَأَ إِلَيْهِ أَيْ الشَّطْرَ ".
قَالَ : قَدْ فَعَلْتُ.
قَالَ : " قُمْ فَاقْضِهِ "

Uthman bin Umar told us, Yunus told us, on the authority of Al-Zuhri, on the authority of Abdullah bin Ka’b, on the authority of his father, that he received compensation from Ibn Abi Hadrad. A debt he owed in the mosque, so their voices rose until the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, heard them while he was in his house, so he came out to them. He called: “O Ka’b.”
He said: At your service, O Messenger of God.
He said: “Put down part of your debt,” and he gestured to him, meaning half.
He said: I did.
He said: “Get up and pay it off.”
