📖 1 min readعن 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".
‘Abdullāh ibn Mas‘ūd (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If anyone undertakes to take a false oath to appropriate the wealth of a Muslim, he will meet Allah while He is angry with him.'' It was revealed: {Indeed, those who exchange the covenant of Allah and their [own] oaths for a small price.} [Āl-‘Imrān: 77]
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.
