[Machine] It is said that a man from Hadhramaut named Amr ibn Abis came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in a land and passed judgment against the Hadhrami with clear evidence, although there was no evidence against him. He then passed judgment against Amr ibn Qays with an oath, so the Hadhrami said, "If you have any proof against him, O Messenger of Allah, it is gone. By Allah or by the Lord of the Kaaba, I am satisfied." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever takes a false oath to unjustly appropriate his brother's wealth, he will meet Allah while in a state of anger." Amr ibn Qays said, "May I have your hope, O Messenger of Allah?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ recited the verse, "Indeed, those who exchange the covenant of Allah and their [own] oaths for a small price" [Quran 3:77]. Amr ibn Qays then asked, "What is the reward for the one who leaves it, O Messenger of Allah?" He replied, "Paradise." Amr ibn Qays said, "Then bear witness that I have left it for him in its entirety."  

يُقَالُ لَهُ امْرُؤُ الْقَيْسِ بْنُ عَابِسٍ رَجُلًا مِنْ حَضَرَمَوْتَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي أَرْضٍ فَقَضَى عَلَى الْحَضْرَمِيِّ بِالْبَيِّنَةِ فَلَمْ تَكُنْ لَهُ بَيِّنَةٌ فَقَضَى عَلَى امْرِئِ الْقَيْسِ بِالْيَمِينِ فَقَالَ الْحَضْرَمِيُّ إِنْ أَمْكَنْتَهُ مِنَ الْيَمِينِ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ذَهَبَتْ وَاللهِ أَوْ وَرَبِّ الْكَعْبَةِ أَرْضِي فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْ حَلَفَ عَلَى يَمِينٍ كَاذِبَةٍ لِيَقْتَطِعَ بِهَا مَالَ أَخِيهِ لَقِيَ اللهَ وَهُوَ عَلَيْهِ غَضْبَانُ قَالَ رَجَاءُ وَتَلَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ {إِنَّ الَّذِينَ يَشْتَرُونَ بِعَهْدِ اللهِ وَأَيْمَانِهِمْ ثَمَنًا قَلِيلًا} [آلعمران 77] فَقَالَ امْرُؤُ الْقَيْسِ مَاذَا لِمَنْ تَرَكَهَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ الْجَنَّةُ قَالَ فَاشْهَدْ أَنِّي قَدْ تَرَكْتُهَا لَهُ كُلَّهَا  

[Machine] There was a dispute between a man from the Qays tribe and another person, so they went to the Prophet ﷺ for arbitration. The Hadrami asked for evidence, but he did not have any. So, the Prophet ﷺ ruled in favor of the man from the Qays tribe by taking an oath. The Hadrami said, "O Messenger of Allah, if it is possible for you to take an oath from him, I am willing to accept it." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Whoever takes a false oath will meet Allah while He is angry with him." Raja' bin Haywa then recited the verse of the Quran, "Indeed, those who exchange the covenant of Allah and their [own] oaths for a small price..." The man from the Qays tribe asked, "What will I gain, O Messenger of Allah, if I leave it?" The Prophet ﷺ said, "Paradise." He said, "Then, I bear witness that I leave it."  

كَانَ بَيْنِ امْرِئِ الْقَيْسِ وَبَيْنَ أَحَدٍ خُصُومَةٌ فَاخْتَصَمَا إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَسَأَلَ الْحَضْرَمِيَّ الْبَيِّنَةَ فَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ بَيِّنَةٌ فَقَضَى عَلَى امْرِئِ الْقَيْسِ بِالْيَمِينِ فَقَالَ الْحَضْرَمِيُّ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إنْ أَمْكَنْتَهُ مِنَ الْيَمِينِ ذَهَبَتْ وَاللهِ أَرْضِي فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «مَنْ حَلَفَ عَلَى يَمِينٍ كَاذِبًا لَقِيَ اللهَ وَهُوَ عَلَيْهِ غَضْبَانُ» قَالَ رَجَاءُ بْنُ حَيْوَةَ فَتَلَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ {إِنَّ الَّذِينَ يَشْتَرُونَ بِعَهْدِ اللهِ وَأَيْمَانِهِمْ ثَمَنًا قَلِيلًا} الْآيَةَ قَالَ امْرُؤُ الْقَيْسِ فَمَاذَا لِي إنْ تَرَكْتُهَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ «الْجَنَّةُ» قَالَ فَإِنِّي أُشْهِدُكَ أَنِّي تَرَكْتُهَا  

[Machine] There was a dispute between a man from the tribe of Qays and a man from Hadramaut, so they went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to the man from Hadramaut, "Provide evidence or swear an oath." The man said, "O Messenger of Allah, if I swear falsely, my land will be taken away." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever swears a false oath to usurp his brother's rights, he will meet Allah while He is angry with him." The man from Qays said, "O Messenger of Allah, what is the reward for the one who refrains from doing it even though he knows he is right?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Paradise." The man from Qays said, "I bear witness that I have refrained from doing it." Jarir said, "I was with Ayub Al-Sakhtiyani when we heard this narration from Adi. Ayub said, 'Adi mentioned this in the narration of Al-Arsi bin Amira. And then this verse was revealed, "Indeed, those who exchange the covenant of Allah and their [own] oaths for a small price..." (Quran 3:77).' Jarir said, 'I did not remember that day from Adi's narration.'"  

كَانَ بَيْنَ امْرِئِ الْقَيْسِ وَرَجُلٍ مِنْ حَضْرَمَوْتَ خُصُومَةٌ فَارْتَفَعَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ لِلْحَضْرَمِيِّ «بَيِّنَتُكَ وَإِلَّا فَيَمِينُهُ» قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنْ حَلَفَ ذَهَبَ بِأَرْضِي فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «مَنْ حَلَفَ عَلَى يَمِينٍ كَاذِبَةٍ لِيَقْتَطِعَ بِهَا حَقَّ أَخِيهِ لَقِيَ اللهَ وَهُوَ عَلَيْهِ غَضْبَانُ» قَالَ امْرُؤُ الْقَيْسِ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَمَا لِمَنْ تَرَكَهَا وَهُوَ يَعْلَمُ أَنَّهَا حَقٌّ قَالَ «الْجَنَّةُ» قَالَ فَإِنِّي أُشْهِدُكَ أَنِّي قَدْ تَرَكْتُهَا قَالَ جَرِيرٌ كُنْتُ مَعَ أَيُّوبَ السَّخْتِيَانِيِّ حِينَ سَمِعْنَا هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ مِنْ عَدِيٍّ فَقَالَ أَيُّوبُ إِنَّ عَدِيًّا قَالَ فِي حَدِيثِ الْعُرْسِ بْنِ عَمِيرَةَ فَنَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ {إِنَّ الَّذِينَ يَشْتَرُونَ بِعَهْدِ اللهِ وَأَيْمَانِهِمْ ثَمَنًا قَلِيلًا} [آل عمران 77] قَالَ جَرِيرٌ وَلَمْ أَحْفَظْ يَوْمَئِذٍ مِنْ عَدِيٍّ  

ʿAbdullah bin Masud said, "Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Whoever takes an oath when asked to do so, in which he may deprive a Muslim of his property unlawfully, will meet Allah Who will be angry with him.' So Allah revealed in confirmation of this statement:--"Verily! Those who Purchase a small gain at the cost of Allah's Covenant and oaths, they shall have no portion in the Hereafter..." (3.77) Then entered Al-Ash'ath bin Qais and said, "What is Abu ʿAbdur-Rahman narrating to you?" We replied, 'So-and-so." Al-Ash'ath said, "This Verse was revealed in my connection. I had a well in the land of my cousin (and he denied my, possessing it). On that the Prophet ﷺ said to me, 'Either you bring forward a proof or he (i.e. your cousin) takes an oath (to confirm his claim)' I said, 'I am sure he would take a (false) oath, O Messenger of Allah ﷺ.' He said, 'If somebody takes an oath when asked to do so through which he may deprive a Muslim of his property (unlawfully) and he is a liar in his oath, he will meet Allah Who will be angry with him.' " (Using translation from Bukhārī 4549)   

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْ حَلَفَ عَلَى يَمِينٍ صَبْرٍ يَقْتَطِعُ بِهَا مَالَ امْرِئٍ مُسْلِمٍ لَقِيَ اللهَ وَهُوَ عَلَيْهِ غَضْبَانُ فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى تَصْدِيقَ ذَلِكَ {إِنَّ الَّذِينَ يَشْتَرُونَ بِعَهْدِ اللهِ وَأَيْمَانِهِمْ ثَمَنًا قَلِيلًا} [آل عمران 77] إِلَى آخِرِ الْآيَةِ فَدَخَلَ الْأَشْعَثُ بْنُ قَيْسٍ فَقَالَ مَا حَدَّثَكُمْ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ؟ قَالُوا كَذَا وَكَذَا قَالَ فِيَّ أُنْزِلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ كَانَتْ لِي بِئْرٌ فِي أَرْضِ ابْنِ عَمٍّ لِي فَأَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ بَيِّنَتَكَ أَوْ يَمِينَهُ قُلْتُ إِذًا يَحْلِفُ عَلَيْهَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْ حَلَفَ عَلَى يَمِينٍ صَبْرٍ هُوَ فِيهَا فَاجِرٌ يَقْتَطِعُ بِهَا مَالَ امْرِئٍ مُسْلِمٍ لَقِيَ اللهَ وَهُوَ عَلَيْهِ غَضْبَانُ  

[Machine] That Al-Qays ibn 'Abis Al-Kindi had a dispute with the Messenger of Allah about a man from Hadramawt in a land, so the Messenger of Allah asked the Hadrami for evidence, but he did not have any evidence. So the Messenger of Allah judged against Al-Qays by taking an oath. The Hadrami said, "O Messenger of Allah, did you think that the oath was gone from me, by Allah, I am pleased." The Messenger of Allah said, "Whoever swears a false oath in order to wrongfully take the property of his brother, will meet Allah on the Day of Resurrection while Allah is angry with him." A man then said, and the Messenger of Allah recited the verse, "Verily, those who purchase a small gain at the cost of Allah's Covenant and their oaths... [Quran 3:77]" until the end of the verse. Imam Al-Qays bin Abis then said, "O Messenger of Allah, what about those who abandon it?" He said, "They have Paradise." Al-Qays said, "I bear witness that I have abandoned it."
