Hadith 582
۞
Hadith.3699 - Al-Hasan ibn Mahbub narrated from Saif ibn Amirah, from Abu Bakr Al-Hadrami, who said
I said to Abu Abdillah (as), "A man had money owed to him by another man, but the debtor denied it and took it away from him. Later, the creditor gained possession of an equivalent amount belonging to the debtor. Can he take it in place of the money that was taken from him?"
Imam (as) said: "Yes, and he should say, 'O Allah (swt), I am only taking this in place of my money that he took from me.'"
3699 - وَ رَوَى اَلْحَسَنُ بْنُ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ سَيْفِ بْنِ عَمِيرَةَ عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرٍ اَلْحَضْرَمِيِّ قَالَ
قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ رَجُلٌ كَانَ لَهُ عَلَى رَجُلٍ مَالٌ فَجَحَدَهُ إِيَّاهُ وَ ذَهَبَ بِهِ مِنْهُ ثُمَّ صَارَ إِلَيْهِ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ مِنْهُ لِلرَّجُلِ اَلَّذِي ذَهَبَ بِمَالِهِ مَالٌ مِثْلُهُ أَ يَأْخُذُهُ مَكَانَ مَالِهِ اَلَّذِي ذَهَبَ بِهِ مِنْهُ قَالَ "نَعَمْ يَقُولُ اَللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي إِنَّمَا آخُذُ هَذَا مَكَانَ مَالِيَ اَلَّذِي أَخَذَهُ مِنِّي ".
