What is the ruling regarding the sustenance left for an insolvent person according to Imam Ahmad?

Primary text

Imam Ahmad, may Allah have mercy upon him, stated in the narration of Abu Dawud that he must be left sustenance (*qut*) by which he can subsist. If he has dependents, he must be left what suffices for their maintenance (*qiwam*). In another narration by Al-Maymuni, he stated that what is sufficient for his livelihood (*ma'ash*) should be left, and the remainder must be sold. This ruling applies to the elderly man and those of status who cannot exert themselves physically.
