He asked Ibn Abi Hadrad to pay off a debt that he owed him. Their voices grew so loud that the Messenger of Allah [SAW] heard them when he was inside his house. He came out to them, drew back the curtain of his room and called out: O Ka'b! He said: Here I am, O Messenger of Allah. He said: Drop his debt to half. He said: I will do that. He said (to the debtor): Go and pay it off.

:Telah mengabarkan kepada kami Ali bin Hujr ia berkata; telah menceritakan kepada kami Isma'il ia berkata; telah menceritakan kepada kami 'Amru bin Abu 'Amru bahwa ia mendengar Anas bin Malik berkata; Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam bersabda kepada Abu Thalhah: Carikanlah seorang budak dari budak-budakmu untuk membantuku. Maka Abu Thalhah membawaku dalam boncengannya hingga aku pun membantu Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam. setiap kali beliau singgah dalam suatu tempat beliau selalu mengucapkan: ALLAHUMMA INNI A'UUDZU BIKA MINAL HARAMI WAL HUZNI WAL 'AJZI WAL KASALI WAL BUKHLI WAL JUBNI WA DLALA'ID DAINI WA GHALABATIRRIJAL (Ya Allah aku berlindung kepada-Mu dari kepikunan kesedihan kelemahan kemalasan kikir sifat pengecut himpitan hutang dan penindasan penguasa).
