Summary
Yahya transmits from Malik, from Zayd ibn Aslam, from Ata ibn Yasar, from Abu Rafi, client of the Messenger of God ﷺ, that he said: the Messenger of God borrowed a young camel, then camels from charity came to him. Abu Rafi said: the Messenger ordered me to repay the man his young camel. I said: I found among the camels only a choice four-year-old stallion. The Messenger said: give him that, for the best of people are the best in repayment. 1
