Do not be Bankrupt.

[Abu Fauzi]

As-Salaam alaikum,
On the authority of Abu Hurayrah, may Allah be pleased with him, it was reported that the Messenger of Allah, Sallallahu alaihi Wasallam, asked:--

"Do you know who the bankrupt person is?" They said, 'A bankrupt man amongst us is
one who has neither dirham with him nor wealth.' He said, "The bankrupt person of my
nation would be he who comes on the Day of Resurrection with prayers and fasts and Zakat
but he hurled abuses upon this person, brought calumny against that person, unlawfully
consumed the wealth of that person, and beat that person. So his good deeds would be
credited to the deeds of those people [by way of retaliation] and if his good deeds fall short
to clear the account, their sins would be added to his and he would be thrown in the Fire." (Muslim, No. 2581/6579)

We should, therefore, be mindful...not to be that bankrupt.
