حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عُفَيْرٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى بْنُ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ عَلِيٍّ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ

قَالَ: إِذَا كَثُرَ الأَخِلَاّءُ كَثُرَ الْغُرَمَاءُ، قُلْتُ لِمُوسَى: وَمَا الْغُرَمَاءُ؟ قَالَ: الْحُقُوقُ

Amr ibn al-‘As said, ‘When you have a lot of close friends, you have a lot of creditors.’ The transmitter asked Musa, ‘What are creditors?’ ‘Rights owed,’ he replied.’
