What is incumbent upon a woman who does not remember if she paid the price for meat she bought from a deceased neighbor, especially since her neighbor told her during her lifetime that she had not paid the price, and she does not remember the quantity of the meat, and her neighbor has adult children? And should she pay the price at the past or current rate? And can it be given to the children as a gift if she does not want to inform them of the debt?

As long as the woman is not certain about repaying the debt, it remains her liability, because liability is only cleared with certainty. The right to the debt transfers to the heirs of the deceased creditor. Therefore, the debtor must pay the price of the meat to the heirs of the deceased. If she is unsure about the amount, she should consider the larger amount. She should pay the sum to the heirs and inform them that it is a right belonging to their mother, so they can divide it as an inheritance. Paying gifts instead of money is not sufficient. The debtor must pay what became her liability at the time of the agreement. Debts are to be settled in kind as long as the currency is valid and has not been abolished.
