أَخْبَرَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ حَمَّادٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ ابْنِ عَجْلَانَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّ رَجُلًا لَمْ يَعْمَلْ خَيْرًا قَطُّ وَكَانَ يُدَايِنُ النَّاسَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَيَقُولُ لِرَسُولِهِ:‏‏‏‏ خُذْ مَا تَيَسَّرَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَاتْرُكْ مَا عَسُرَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَتَجَاوَزْ لَعَلَّ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى أَنْ يَتَجَاوَزَ عَنَّا فَلَمَّا هَلَكَ. قَالَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لَهُ:‏‏‏‏ هَلْ عَمِلْتَ خَيْرًا قَطُّ ؟،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ لَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏إِلَّا أَنَّهُ كَانَ لِي غُلَامٌ وَكُنْتُ أُدَايِنُ النَّاسَ فَإِذَا بَعَثْتُهُ لِيَتَقَاضَى، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قُلْتُ لَهُ:‏‏‏‏ خُذْ مَا تَيَسَّرَ وَاتْرُكْ مَا عَسُرَ وَتَجَاوَزْ لَعَلَّ اللَّهَ يَتَجَاوَزُ عَنَّا. قَالَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى:‏‏‏‏ قَدْ تَجَاوَزْتُ عَنْكَ .

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: There was a man who never did any good deed, but he used to lend to people and he would say to this messenger: Take what can be paid easily and leave what is difficult, let them off, and perhaps Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, said to him: 'Did you ever do any good did? He said: No, but I had a slave and I used to lend to people. When I sent him to collect the debts I said to him: Take what can he paid easily and leave what is difficult; let them off, and perhaps Allah will let us off. Allah, the Most High, said: 'I have let you off. '
