سَأَلْتُ أَبَا الْحَسَنِ ( عليه السلام ) عَنْ رَجُلٍ عَارِفٍ فَاضِلٍ تُوُفِّيَ وَ تَرَكَ عَلَيْهِ دَيْناً قَدِ ابْتُلِيَ بِهِ لَمْ يَكُنْ بِمُفْسِدٍ وَ لَا بِمُسْرِفٍ وَ لَا مَعْرُوفٍ بِالْمَسْأَلَةِ هَلْ يُقْضَى عَنْهُ مِنَ الزَّكَاةِ الْأَلْفُ وَ الْأَلْفَانِ قَالَ نَعَمْ .
Translation
Muhammad Bin Ismail, from Al Fazl Bin Shazaan and Mihammad Bin Yahya, from Muhammad Bin Al Husayn, altogether from Safwan Bin Yahya, from Abdul Rahman Bin Al Hajjaj who said, ‘I asked Abu Al-Hassan<sup>asws</sup> about an understanding, meritorious man who dies and leaves debts upon him that he had been afflicted with, not happening by corruption, nor extravagance, nor being well-known for begins. Would these be fulfilled on his behalf from the <span class="iTxt">Zakāt</span>, the thousand and the two thousand?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Yes’.
