حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ، وَالْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَرَفَةَ، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ عَيَّاشٍ، حَدَّثَنِي شُرَحْبِيلُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ الْخَوْلاَنِيُّ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا أُمَامَةَ الْبَاهِلِيَّ، يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ " الزَّعِيمُ غَارِمٌ وَالدَّيْنُ مَقْضِيٌّ " .

Hisham ibn Ammar and al-Hasan ibn Arafah both narrated to us: Ismail ibn Ayyash narrated to me: Shurahbil ibn Muslim al-Khawlani said: I heard Abu Umamah al-Bahili say that he heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: “The guarantor is liable, and the debt must be repaid.”
Notes and open questions — unreviewed
The Arabic presents two short legal declarations: the guarantor bears liability, and the debt remains to be discharged. Both initial transmitters are included.
