My brothers and sisters in islam:
Islam takes the debt very seriously. Islam warns against it and urges the Muslim to avoid it as much as possible.
“Whoever dies free from 3 things:
- Arrogance,
- Cheating
- and debt
- will enter Paradise.”
[Narrated by al-Tirmidhi (1572); classed as saheeh by Sh. Albani in Saheeh al-Tirmidhi.]
“The soul of the believer is suspended because of his debt until it is paid off.”
[Narrated by al-Tirmidhi (1078).]
Al-Mubaarakfoori said in Tuhfat al-Ahwadhi (4/164):
The words “the soul of the believer is suspended”
– al-Suyooti said: i.e., it is detained and kept from reaching its noble destination.
Al-‘Iraaqi said: i.e., no judgement is passed as to whether it will be saved or doomed until it is determined whether his debt will be paid off or not. End quote.
