A Journey for an Amanah

It is reported that ʿAbdullāh b. Al-Mubārak – Allāh have mercy on him – said:

I borrowed a pen in the land of Syria, and it slipped my mind to return it to its owner. When I arrived in Marw, I looked and found it still with me, so I returned to the land of Syria and gave it back to its owner.
