A borrower's responsibility to re-pay

Hello,

We have seen that we are obligated to extend loans. However, the borrower is also obligated to re-pay. It is prohibited for a borrower to pretend that he is unable to re-pay, even if his intent only to delay repayment for a single day.

(Shulchan Aruch Choshen Mishpat 97:3)

Have a great day,
Mordechai
