[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever swears an oath to take something unlawfully while lying, he will meet Allah while He is angry with him." This is confirmed in the Book of Allah (Quran), "Indeed, those who exchange the covenant of Allah and their own oaths for a small price will have no share in the Hereafter" [Surah Al-Imran 77]. Ash'ath ibn Qays came and asked, "What is Abu Abdur Rahman talking to you about?" We said, "He said such and such." Ash'ath said, "By Allah, he is telling the truth. Allah revealed a verse about me and another person with whom I had a dispute." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked, "Are you his witness or do you have any oath?" I said, "In that case, he will swear an oath." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever swears an oath to take something unlawfully while lying, he will meet Allah while He is angry with him." Then Allah revealed this verse. Abu Abdur Rahman was followed by Mansur ibn Al-Mu'tamir.
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «مَنْ حَلَفَ عَلَى يَمِينٍ يَقْتَطِعُ بِهَا مَالًا وَهُوَ فِيهَا كَاذِبٌ لَقِيَ اللهَ وَهُوَ عَلَيْهِ غَضْبَانُ» وَتَصْدِيقُهُ فِي كِتَابِ اللهِ ﷻ {إِنَّ الَّذِينَ يَشْتَرُونَ بِعَهْدِ اللهِ وَأَيْمَانِهِمْ ثَمَنًا قَلِيلًا أُولَئِكَ لَا خَلَاقَ لَهُمْ فِي الْآخِرَةِ} [آل عمران 77] قَالَ فَجَاءَ الْأَشْعَثُ بْنُ قَيْسٍ فَقَالَ مَا يُحَدِّثُكُمْ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ؟ قُلْنَا كَذَا وَكَذَا قَالَ صَدَقَ وَاللهِ لَأُنْزِلَتْ فِيَّ وَفِي فُلَانٍ كَانَتْ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَهُ خُصُومَةٌ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ شُهُودُكَ أَوْ يَمِينُهُ قُلْتُ إِذًا يَحْلِفُ قَالَ «مَنْ حَلَفَ عَلَى يَمِينٍ يَقْتَطِعُ بِهَا مَالًا وَهُوَ فِيهَا كَاذِبٌ لَقِيَ اللهَ وَهُوَ غَضْبَانُ» فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ تَابَعَهُ مَنْصُورُ بْنُ الْمُعْتَمِرِ
