The Prophet (SAW) said:
"O Allah! i seek refuge with You from worry and greif, from incapacity and laziness, from cowardice and miserliness, from being heavily in debt and from being overpowered by (other) men" (shahih Bukhari 8.380)
"By Him in whose hand Muhammad's soul is, if a man were to be killed in Allah's path then come to life, and be killed once more in Allah's path then come to life owing debt, he would not enter paradise until his debt is paid" (Al Tirmidhi 2929)
"A believer's soul is attached to his debt till it is paid." (Al Tirmidhi 2915)

Allah's Messenger (SAW) took from a man as a loan a young camel (below six years). Then the camel of Sadaqah were bought to him. He ordered Abu Rafi to return the camel (as to return the loan). Abu Rafi returned to him and said "I did not find among them but better camels above the age of six." The holy Prophet (SAW) said: "Give that to him for the best of men are those who are best in paying off the debt". (Sahih Muslim 3896)
