Collecting on a loan

Hi,

One may not demand collection from a debtor if the debtor has no means of paying the debt; one may not even pass in front of him (to remind him of the debt), if there is no means of re-payment.

(Shulchan Aruch Choshen Mishpat 97:2)

Have a great day,
Mordechai

  1. I like the tone (and subject matter) of your daily mails; they remind me of Telushkin.

    Thanks! A most undeserved compliment, but I'll take it.
