THEFT OF PROPERTY

215

“Allah has decreed the Fire for anyone who usurps the property of a Muslim through a false oath and therewith bars him from Paradise. A Companion asked: ‘O Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, even if it is insignificant?’ He replied: ‘Even if it is the twig of an Arak bush.’”

Muslim with a chain up to Abu Umamah Iyas son of Harithi who related that the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, said this.
