intended to harm him, but Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said (to them), “Leave him, for the creditor (i.e. owner of a
right) has the right to speak.” Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) then said, “Give him a camel of the same age as that of
his.” The people said, “O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)! There is only a camel that is older than his.” Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)
said, “Give (it to) him, for the best amongst you is he who pays the rights of others handsomely.”

The above hadith is from the Sahih al-Buhari collection of hadiths. Within the Islamic scholarly tradition, few works hold as much weight as Sahih al-Bukhari. This vast compilation, assembled by the Persian scholar al-Bukhārī circa 847, is a cornerstone of Sunni faith and practice. It is one of the six canonical hadith collections known collectively as the Kutub al-Sittah. Imam al-Bukhārī’s work is particularly celebrated for its author’s stringent criteria in verifying the chain of narration (isnad), resulting in a trusted body of over 7,500 hadiths organized into 97 distinct chapters that cover every aspect of life.
