Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated:
"A man from previous nations was about to die when the angel asked if he had done any good. He replied: 'I only know that I used to give extensions to the solvent and forgive the insolvent.' So Allah admitted him to Paradise." [Agreed upon]
Muslim's version from Uqbah ibn Amir and Abu Mas'ud adds: Allah said: "I am more worthy of such mercy - forgive My servant."
