Hadith on Rights: Every claimant is entitled to speak

Abu Huraira reported: A man came to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, seeking the settlement of his loans and he spoke harshly to him. This disturbed his companions, but the Prophet said, “Leave him alone, for everyone with a right is entitled to speak.”
