Chapter 43: Loans, Payment of Loans, Freezing of Property, Bankruptcy
Narrated 'Abdullah bin 'Umar: I heard Allah' s Messenger (ﷺ) saying, "Everyone of you is a guardian, and responsible for what is in his
custody. The ruler is a guardian of his subjects and responsible for them; a husband is a guardian of
his family and is responsible for it; a lady is a guardian of her husband' s house and is responsible for
it, and a servant is a guardian of his master' s property and is responsible for it." I heard that from
Allah' s Messenger (ﷺ) and I think that the Prophet (ﷺ) also said, "A man is a guardian of is father' s property and
is responsible for it, so all of you are guardians and responsible for your wards and things under your
care."
