1 hadith
رَوَى اَلْحَسَنُ بْنُ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: فِي اَلرَّجُلِ يَمُوتُ وَ عَلَيْهِ دَيْنٌ فَيَضْمَنُهُ ضَامِنٌ لِلْغُرَمَاءِ قَالَ "إِذَا رَضِيَ اَلْغُرَمَاءُ فَقَدْ بَرِئَتْ ذِمَّةُ اَلْمَيِّتِ".
Al-Hasan ibn Mahbub narrated from Abdullah ibn Sinan from Abu Abdullah عليه السلام, regarding a man who dies while owing a debt, and a guarantor assumes responsibility for it on behalf of the creditors. Imam عليه السلام said: "If the creditors agree, then the deceased is cleared of responsibility."
