Procrastinating in settling one's debts

Q: If you are in debt, does it affect your taubah or forgiveness? I mean can a debt stop you getting your sins forgiven? would Allah forgive your sins if your in debt?

A: Sins are a different thing altogether. Procrastinating your debts is one sin and the other sins are another side of your life.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
