[Machine] The Messenger of Allahﷺ said, "Whoever swears falsely by a pact of patience in order to usurp his brother's wealth, he will meet Allah while He is angry with him." This is because Allah says, "Indeed, those who exchange the covenant of Allah and their [own] oaths for a small price..." until the end of the verse.

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «مَنْ حَلَفَ عَلَى يَمِينِ صَبْرٍ كَاذِبًا لِيَقْتَطِعَ بِهَا مَالَ أَخِيهِ لَقِيَ اللَّهَ وَهُوَ عَلَيْهِ غَضْبَانُ» وَذَلِكَ بِأَنَّ اللَّهَ يَقُولُ {إِنَّ الَّذِينَ يَشْتَرُونَ بِعَهْدِ اللَّهِ وَأَيْمَانِهِمْ ثَمَنًا قَلِيلًا} إِلَى آخِرِ الْآيَةِ

The Prophet ﷺ said, "Whoever takes a false oath in order to grab another man's (or his brother's) property, then Allah will be angry with him when he will meet him." Then Allah confirmed this by revealing the Divine Verse: "Verily! Those who purchase a little gain at the cost of Allah's Covenant and their oaths . . . Will get painful punishment." (3.77) Al-Ash'ath met me and asked, "What did ʿAbdullah tell you today?" I said, "So and so." He said, "The Verse was revealed regarding my case."

The Prophet ﷺ said, "Whoever takes the property of a Muslim by taking a false oath, will meet Allah Who will be angry with him." Then the Prophet ﷺ recited the Verse:-- 'Verily those who purchase a small gain at the cost of Allah's Covenant and their oaths, they shall have no portion in the Hereafter, neither will Allah speak to them, nor look at them.' (3.77)

I heard the Messenger of Allah observing: He who took an oath on the property of a Muslim without legitimate right would meet Allah and He would be angry, with him. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in support of his contention recited the verse:" Verily those who barter Allah's covenant and their oaths at a small price.

[Machine] Narrated by the Prophet ﷺ : "Whoever takes an oath by my right hand to acquire the property of a Muslim, he will meet Allah while He is angry with him." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ recited to us this statement as proof from the book of Allah, the Mighty and the Majestic, "Verily, those who exchange the covenant of Allah and their own oaths for a small price, they shall have no portion in the Hereafter, nor will Allah speak to them" (Surah Al-Imran, 3:77).

ahmad:4212Wakīʿ > al-Aʿmash > Abū Wāʾil > ʿAbdullāh

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever takes a false oath to appropriate the property of a Muslim while he is still engaged in the act of sinning, he will meet Allah, Exalted and Glorious, while He is angry with him." He said, "This verse was revealed: 'Verily, those who purchase a small gain at the cost of the covenant of Allah and their oaths...' (Quran 3:77) until the end of the verse."

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever swears an intentional oath to wrongfully cut off the wealth of a Muslim, he will meet Allah on the Day of Resurrection while He is angry with him." He recited the verse, "Indeed, those who exchange the covenant of Allah and their [own] oaths for a small price..." Yazid ibn Ibrahim raised his hand, but Hammad ibn Zaid did not raise his.
