أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَعِيلُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْعَلَائُ عَنْ مَعْبَدِ بْنِ کَعْبٍ عَنْ أَخِيهِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ کَعْبٍ عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ مَنْ اقْتَطَعَ حَقَّ امْرِئٍ مُسْلِمٍ بِيَمِينِهِ فَقَدْ أَوْجَبَ اللَّهُ لَهُ النَّارَ وَحَرَّمَ عَلَيْهِ الْجَنَّةَ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَجُلٌ وَإِنْ کَانَ شَيْئًا يَسِيرًا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ وَإِنْ کَانَ قَضِيبًا مِنْ أَرَاکٍ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 5434
It was narrated from Abu Umamah that the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم said: “Whoever seizes the wealth of a Muslim unlawfully by means of his (false) oath, Allah makes the Fire required for him, Paradise unlawful for him.” A man said to him: “Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم, even if it is something small?” He said “Even if it is a twig of an Arak tree.” (Sahih)
