حَدَّثَنَا الْقَعْنَبِيُّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ مَالِكٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِي رَافِعٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ اسْتَسْلَفَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَكْرًا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَجَاءَتْهُ إِبِلٌ مِنَ الصَّدَقَةِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَمَرَنِي أَنْ أَقْضِيَ الرَّجُلَ بَكْرَهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقُلْتُ:‏‏‏‏ لَمْ أَجِدْ فِي الْإِبِلِ إِلَّا جَمَلًا خِيَارًا رَبَاعِيًا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ أَعْطِهِ إِيَّاهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَإِنَّ خِيَارَ النَّاسِ أَحْسَنُهُمْ قَضَاءً .

The Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم borrowed a young camel, and when the camels of the sadaqah (alms) came to him, he ordered me to pay the man his young camel. I said: I find only an excellent camel in its seventh year. So the Prophet صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم said: Give it to him, for the best person is he who discharges his debt in the best manner.
