[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
