Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا أَسْوَدُ بْنُ عَامِرٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ عَنْ عَاصِ
مٍ عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَنْ اقْتَطَعَ مَالَ امْرِئٍ مُسْلِمٍ بِغَيْرِ حَقٍّ لَقِيَ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَهُوَ عَلَيْهِ غَضْبَانُ

English Translation
Aswad ibn 'Amir narrated to us, Abu Bakr informed us, from 'Asim, from Abu Wa'il, from 'Abdullah who said: the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Whoever takes the wealth of a Muslim by swearing a false oath, he will meet Allah while He is angry with him.' Al-Ash'ath ibn Qays said: This was about me. There was a dispute between me and a Jewish man regarding land. I denied his claim and brought him before the Prophet ﷺ, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to me: 'Do you have evidence?' I said: No. He said to the Jew: 'Swear an oath.' I said: O Messenger of Allah, then he will swear and take my property. So Allah عز وجل revealed: {Indeed, those who exchange the covenant of Allah and their oaths for a small price} [Al 'Imran 3:77] to the end of the verse.
