Is the failure to pay for items purchased from the school cafeteria in another country more than ten years ago considered a debt, and what should one do about it?

A person is not held accountable for what they did in their childhood, due to the hadith (definition): "The Pen has been lifted from three: from the sleeper until he awakens, from the child until he reaches maturity, and from the insane person until he regains his sanity." Nevertheless, the rights of people are not lost. What the child borrowed or damaged becomes a responsibility upon him after reaching puberty.

The questioner should estimate the value of the purchases she took in her childhood and return them to their owners if possible, unless they forgive her. If it is impossible to identify the rightful owners or deliver the money to them, she should give the amount in charity with the intention of settling the debt on behalf of its owners. One must be wary of Satan exaggerating these matters to lead a Muslim to despair and sorrow.
