وَحَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، أَخْبَرَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ يُونُسَ، حَدَّثَنَا الأَعْمَشُ، عَنْ مُسْلِمٍ، الْبَطِينِ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، - رضى الله عنهما - أَنَّ امْرَأَةً، أَتَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَتْ إِنَّ أُمِّي مَاتَتْ وَعَلَيْهَا صَوْمُ شَهْرٍ ‏.‏ فَقَالَ ‏"‏ أَرَأَيْتِ لَوْ كَانَ عَلَيْهَا دَيْنٌ أَكُنْتِ تَقْضِينَهُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَتْ نَعَمْ ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ فَدَيْنُ اللَّهِ أَحَقُّ بِالْقَضَاءِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Ibn 'Abbas (Allah be pleased with both of them) reported:A woman came to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and said: My mother has died, and fasts of a month are due from her. Thereupon he said: Don't you see that if debt was due from her, would you not pay it? She said: Yes (I would pay on her behalf). Thereupon he said: The debt of Allah deserves its payment more than (the payment of anyone else)

Rapporté par Ibn 'Abbas رضي الله عنهما : Une femme est venue voir le Messager d’Allah ﷺ et a dit : « Ma mère est décédée et il lui restait un mois de jeûne à accomplir. » Il répondit : « Ne vois-tu pas que si elle avait une dette, tu l’aurais payée pour elle ? » Elle dit : « Oui. » Il dit alors : « La dette envers Allah mérite encore plus d’être réglée. »
