"From Ibn 'Umar, who said: Usayd ibn al-Hudayr died and left a debt of four thousand dirhams, and his property yielded a thousand each year. They wanted to sell it. When this reached 'Umar ibn al-Khattab, he sent to his creditors and said: Would you accept receiving a thousand each year, to be paid in full over four years? They said: Yes, O Commander of the Faithful. So they postponed the sale, and they used to receive a thousand each year."
