Hadith.3258 - Al-Asbagh ibn Nubatah narrated from Commander of the Faithful (as) that he ruled
"A corrupt young man should be placed under guardianship until he matures and becomes rational."
Imam (as) also ruled regarding debt:
"The debtor should be imprisoned. If his insolvency and need are proven, he is released until he acquires wealth."
Imam (as) further ruled in the case of a man who evades his creditors:
"He should be imprisoned, and then ordered to divide his wealth among his creditors proportionally. If he refuses, his property is sold, and the proceeds are distributed among them."

أَنَّهُ قَضَى "أَنْ يُحْجَرَ عَلَى اَلْغُلاَمِ اَلْمُفْسِدِ حَتَّى يَعْقِلَ" وَ قَضَى عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ فِي اَلدَّيْنِ "أَنَّهُ يُحْبَسُ صَاحِبُهُ فَإِذَا تَبَيَّنَ إِفْلاَسُهُ وَ اَلْحَاجَةُ فَيُخَلَّى سَبِيلُهُ حَتَّى يَسْتَفِيدَ مَالاً" وَ قَضَى عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ فِي اَلرَّجُلِ يَلْتَوِي عَلَى غُرَمَائِهِ "أَنَّهُ يُحْبَسُ ثُمَّ يُؤْمَرُ بِهِ فَيَقْسِمُ مَالَهُ بَيْنَ غُرَمَائِهِ بِالْحِصَصِ فَإِنْ أَبَى بَاعَهُ فَقَسَمَهُ بَيْنَهُمْ".
