[Machine] On the authority of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , he said, "Whoever swears falsely by taking an oath, in order to take away the property of a Muslim, or his brother, will meet Allah while He is angry with him." Allah then revealed in the Quran the confirmation of this, "Indeed, those who exchange the covenant of Allah and their [own] oaths for a small price" [Al-Imran 77] until the end of the verse. Ashath then passed by and said to me, "This verse was revealed about me, and about a dispute I had regarding a well."  

عَنِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ أَنَّهُ قَالَ مَنْ حَلَفَ عَلَى يَمِينٍ كَاذِبًا يَقْطَعُ بِهَا مَالَ امْرِئٍ مُسْلِمٍ أَوْ قَالَ مَالَ أَخِيهِ لَقِيَ اللهَ وَهُوَ عَلَيْهِ غَضْبَانُ قَالَ فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ ﷻ تَصْدِيقَ ذَلِكَ فِي الْقُرْآنِ {إِنَّ الَّذِينَ يَشْتَرُونَ بِعَهْدِ اللهِ وَأَيْمَانِهِمْ ثَمَنًا قَلِيلًا} [آل عمران 77] إِلَى آخِرِ الْآيَةِ قَالَ فَمَرَّ الْأَشْعَثُ فَقَالَ فِيَّ نَزَلَتْ وَفِي رَجُلٍ اخْتَصَمْنَا فِي بِئْرٍ  

[Machine] I asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, "Which people are the best?" He said, "My generation, then those who come after them, then those who come after them, then those who come after them. Then there will come a people whose witness will precede their oath and their oath will precede their witness." Ibrahim said, "Our companions used to prohibit us, while we were young, from swearing by the testimony and the covenant, as the wording of both is similar, except that the saying 'then those who come after them' is mentioned twice in the narration of Al-Qattan."  

سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أِيُّ النَّاسِ خَيْرٌ؟ قَالَ قَرْنِي ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ ثُمَّ يَجِيءُ قَوْمٌ تَسْبِقُ شَهَادَةُ أَحَدِهِمْ يَمِينَهُ وَيَمِينُهُ شَهَادَتَهُ قَالَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ فَكَانَ أَصْحَابُنَا يَنْهَوْنَنَا وَنَحْنُ غِلْمَانٌ أَنْ نَحْلِفَ بِالشَّهَادَةِ وَالْعَهْدِ لَفْظُ حَدِيثِهِمَا سَوَاءٌ إِلَّا أَنَّ قَوْلَهُ ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ فِي رِوَايَةِ الْقَطَّانِ مَرَّتَيْنِ
