6. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from [Ibn Abi ‘Umayr] from Hanan ibn Sadir from his father who has said the following
“Abu Ja‘far (a.s.), has said, ‘Being killed for the cause of Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious, serves as expiation for all kinds of sins except debts, for which there is no expiation other than paying it back or those liable pay or the owner of the lending right waives it in favor of the borrower.’”
6- عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ [عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ] عَنْ حَنَانِ بْنِ سَدِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) قَالَ
كُلُّ ذَنْبٍ يُكَفِّرُهُ الْقَتْلُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ إِلا الدَّيْنَ لا كَفَّارَةَ لَهُ إِلا أَدَاؤُهُ أَوْ يَقْضِيَ صَاحِبُهُ أَوْ يَعْفُوَ الَّذِي لَهُ الْحَقُّ.
