Hadith.1601 - It has been narrated from Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) that he said
"Loaning is a good deed. If the borrower is able to repay, they will do so; and if they are unable, you can count it as part of your Zakat."
1601 - وَ قَدْ رُوِيَ عَنِ اَلصَّادِقِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ
أَنَّهُ قَالَ: «نِعْمَ اَلشَّيْءُ اَلْقَرْضُ إِنْ أَيْسَرَ قَضَاكَ وَ إِنْ أَعْسَرَ حَسَبْتَهُ مِنَ اَلزَّكَاةِ.
