The mitzvah of lending

Hi,

Lending money is a mitzvah; it is considered to be greater than the mitzvah of giving tzedakah, where the recipient has not already fallen into a state of needing to receive outright gifts.

(Shulchan Aruch Choshen Mishpat 97:1; Pitchei Choshen Halvaah 1:1)

Have a great day,
Mordechai
