وَعَنْهُ قَالَ: أَتَى رَجُلٌ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: إِنَّ أُخْتِي نَذَرَتْ أَنْ تَحُجَّ وَإِنَّهَا مَاتَتْ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَوْ كَانَ عَلَيْهَا دَيْنٌ أَكَنْتَ قَاضِيَهُ؟» قَالَ: نَعَمْ قَالَ: «فَاقْضِ دَيْنَ اللَّهِ فَهُوَ أَحَقُّ بِالْقَضَاءِ»
On his authority, he said: A man came to the Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, and said: My sister vowed to perform Hajj, but she died, so the Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, said: “If she had a debt, would you have settled it?” He said: Yes. He said: “Fulfill the debt of God, for He is more deserving of its fulfillment.”
