An adult trader owes several due debts, holds cash and inventory, and delays payment. Four separate questions organize the case:
1. Are the debts and available assets established?
2. Have creditors petitioned for judicial interdiction?
3. Is the available property cash of the relevant kind or ordinary inventory?
4. Are there multiple creditors and required maintenance obligations?
Keeping these questions distinct reveals where Abu Hanifah’s approach and the two disciples’ approach diverge.
