The Debtor Taking Charity

Question
Is it permissible for a debtor to take charity from others?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: If the debtor is poor, it is permissible, and he is the one who does not possess the minimum amount, such that if we deducted what he owes from the money he has, he would not have the amount of the minimum left, and God knows best.
