What did the Prophet Muhammad (saw) narrate concerning the story of a man from Bani Israel lending one thousand diners?
      Narrated Abu Huraira     The Prophet said, "A man from Bani Israel asked someone from Bani      Israel to give him a loan of one thousand Dinars and the later gave it     to him. The debtor went on a voyage (when the time for the payment of      the debt became due) but he did not find a boat, so he took a piece of     wood and bored it and put 1000 diners in it and threw it into the sea.     The creditor went out and took the piece of wood to his family to be      used as fire-wood." (See Hadith No. 488 B, Vol. 3). And the Prophet      narrated the narration (and said), "When he sawed the wood, he found      his money."
