Repaying Debts with Generosity

SUMMARY: The Prophet (ﷺ) repaid a debt he owed to Jabir bin 'Abdullah and gave him an extra amount.

Narrated Jabir bin 'Abdullah: I went to the Prophet while he was in the Mosque. (Mas'ar thinks, that Jabir went in the forenoon) After the Prophet told me to pray two rak'at, he repaid me the debt he owed me and gave me an extra amount.
حَدَّثَنَا خَلاَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا مِسْعَرٌ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَارِبُ بْنُ دِثَارٍ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ قَالَ أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ وَهْوَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ ـ قَالَ مِسْعَرٌ أُرَاهُ قَالَ ضُحًى ـ فَقَالَ ‏ "‏ صَلِّ رَكْعَتَيْنِ ‏"‏‏.‏ وَكَانَ لِي عَلَيْهِ دَيْنٌ فَقَضَانِي وَزَادَنِي‏.‏
