That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to the people of weights and measures: "Indeed you have been entrusted with two matters that nations preceding you in the past were destroyed for."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لأَصْحَابِ الْمِكْيَالِ وَالْمِيزَانِ إِنَّكُمْ قَدْ وُلِّيتُمْ أَمْرَيْنِ هَلَكَتْ فِيهِ الأُمَمُ السَّالِفَةُ قَبْلَكُمْ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to the companions regarding measuring and weighing: "You have been entrusted with something in which the previous nations were destroyed."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لِأَصْحَابِ الْكَيْلِ وَالْمِيزَانِ «إِنَّكُمْ قَدْ وُلِّيتُمْ أَمْرًا فِيهِ هَلَكَتِ الْأُمَمُ السَّالِفَةُ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "O merchants, you have been entrusted with a matter in which previous nations have perished - the measure and the balance. This was established by Abu Ali Hanash, and others have narrated it from another aspect by Ibn Abbas."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَا مَعْشَرَ التُّجَّارِ إِنَّكُمْ قَدْ وُلِّيتُمْ أَمْرًا هَلَكَتْ فِيهِ الْأُمَمُ السَّالِفَةُ الْمِكْيَالَ وَالْمِيزَانَ أَسْنَدَهُ أَبُو عَلِيٍّ حَنَشٌ وَوَقَفَهُ غَيْرُهُ مِنْ وَجْهٍ آخَرَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ  

"إِنَّكُمْ قَدْ وُلِّيتُمْ أمْرَيْنِ هَلَكَتْ فِيهِ الأُمَمُ السَّابِقَةُ قَبْلَكُمْ".
