“I once said to abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), ‘We are told that a man from al-Ansar died while he owed two dinar to pay. The Holy Prophet, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, did not perform Salat (prayer) on his dead body and said, “You must perform Salat (prayer) on the dead body of your companion.” (It was the case) until someone of his relatives guaranteed to pay the two dinars on his behalf.’ Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), said, ‘That is the right.’ He (the Imam) said, ‘The Messenger of Allah did so to teach people a lesson to pay back the debts they owe to each other and must not take the issue of debts lightly. The Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, passed away while he owed payable debts, al-Hassan (a.s.), died while he owed payable debts and Al-Husayn (a.s.), was murdered while he owed payable debts.’”
