Sahih

حَدَّثَنَا هَنَّادُ بْنُ السَّرِيِّ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْأَحْوَصِ، عَنْ سِمَاكٍ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ بْنِ وَائِلِ بْنِ حُجْرٍ الْحَضْرَمِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ: جَاءَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ حَضْرَمَوْتَ، وَرَجُلٌ مِنْ كِنْدَةَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ الْحَضْرَمِيُّ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، إِنَّ هَذَا غَلَبَنِي عَلَى أَرْضٍ كَانَتْ لِأَبِي، فَقَالَ الْكِنْدِيُّ: هِيَ أَرْضِي فِي يَدِي أَزْرَعُهَا، لَيْسَ لَهُ فِيهَا حَقٌّ، قَالَ: فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِلْحَضْرَمِيِّ: أَلَكَ بَيِّنَةٌ ؟، قَالَ: لَا، قَالَ: فَلَكَ يَمِينُهُ ؟، قَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، إِنَّهُ فَاجِرٌ لَا يُبَالِي مَا حَلَفَ عَلَيْهِ، لَيْسَ يَتَوَرَّعُ مِنْ شَيْءٍ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: لَيْسَ لَكَ مِنْهُ إِلَّا ذَاكَ، فَانْطَلَقَ لِيَحْلِفَ لَهُ، فَلَمَّا أَدْبَرَ، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: أَمَا لَئِنْ حَلَفَ عَلَى مَالٍ لِيَأْكُلَهُ ظَالِمًا، لَيَلْقَيَنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَهُوَ عَنْهُ مُعْرِضٌ .

Narrated Alqamah bin Wail bin Hujr al-Hadrami رضی اللہ عنہ : On the Authority of his father: A man from Hadramawt and a man of Kindah came to the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم. Al-Hadrami said: Messenger of Allah, this (man) took away forcibly from me the land which belongs to my father. Al-Kindi said: It is my land in my possession, and I cultivate it, he has no right to it. The Prophet صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم then said to al-Hadrami: Have you any proof ? He said: No. He then said: So for you is his oath. He said: Messenger of Allah, he is liar, he does not care for which he is taking the oath. He does not refrain himself from anything. The Prophet صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم said: You will have nothing from him except that. He went to take an oath for him. When he turned his back, the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم said: If he takes an oath on the property to take it away by unfair means, he will meet Allah while He is unmindful of him.
