[Machine] The prophet of Allah, ﷺ , said: "Indeed, the greatest of thefts in the sight of Allah on the Day of Resurrection is the stealing of a span of land or a cubit that a man and his neighbor share. So, one of them steals it from its rightful owner, and he is encompassed by it from seven layers of the earth."

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "The greatest theft in the sight of Allah on the Day of Judgment is when two people or two partners have a plot of land, and they divide it and one of them steals an arm's length of land from his partner, so he encircles him with land from seven earths."  

أحمد:٢٢٩١٤ – حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ عَنْ شَرِيكٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَقِيلٍ عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ عَنْ أَبِي مَالِكٍ الْأَشْعَرِيِّ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَعْظَمُ الْغُلُولِ عِنْدَ اللهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ ذِرَاعٌ مِنْ أَرْضٍ يَكُونُ بَيْنَ الرَّجُلَيْنِ أَوْ بَيْنَ الشَّرِيكَيْنِ لِلدَّارِ فَيَقْتَسِمَانِ فَيَسْرِقُ أَحَدُهُمَا مِنْ صَاحِبِهِ ذِرَاعًامِنْ أَرْضٍ فَيُطَوَّقُهُ مِنْ سَبْعِ أَرَضِينَ
