It has been related that Muadh bin Jabal was indebted to a Jew who used
to persistently request payment. One Friday, he hid in his house and did
not go out to pray the Friday prayer. When the Prophet, upon him be
peace, finished his prayer he noticed that Muadh was not present. The
following day, when Muadh came, he, upon him be peace, said, ‘O Muadh,
you missed the Friday prayer?’
He said, ‘O Messenger of Allah, I have a debt which is due to such and
such a person and I do not have anything to pay him with, so I hid. He,
upon him be peace, said, ‘shall I teach you a dua that if you had a debt
the size of Uhud in gold, Allah would fulfil it.’
‘Of course, O Messenger of Allah,’ he said.
He said, I was consistent in this supplication and my debt was relieved.
