Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !
(Fatwa: 1331/1430/L=12/1436) You are not asked to return the amount to your friend when he said that you do not need to return the amount to him. It is as if he has remitted the debt. The debt is remitted in case one calls it off. قال فى الهندية: هبة الدين فمن عليه الدين جائزة قياسا و استحسانا ....... هبة الدين فمن عليه الدين وابراؤه يتم من غير قبول من المديون (الهندية: 4/384)
