Al-ʿAbbās ibn al-Walīd said, “My father said, ‘I heard al-ʾAwzāʿī saying, ‘It has reached me that on the Day of Resurrection it will be said to a servant, ‘Stand up and take your due right from so and so.’ So he will reply saying, ‘[But] I’m not owed any rights from him.’ So it will be said, ‘But you are. He mentioned you on such and such a day saying this and this.’’’”
Shuʿab al-Īmān, p. 98.
