عن عبد الله بن مسعودٍ رضي الله عنه مرفوعًا: (من حلف على يَمِينِ صَبْرٍ يَقْتَطِعُ بها مال امرئ مسلم، هو فيها فاجر، لقي الله وهو عليه غضبان)، ونزلت: (إن الذين يشترون بعهد الله وأيمانهم ثمنا قليلا) إلى آخر الآية".

This Hadīth issues a terrible threat to the one who takes someone else's wealth unlawfully by a false oath. Allah shall be angry with such a person when he meets Him. Divine wrath sends one to his doom. To confirm this threat, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) recited a related verse from the Qur’an.
