وعن أبي أمامة الحارثي رضي الله عنه أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم قال : « من اقتطع حق امرىء مسلم بيمينه فقد أوجب الله له النار وحرم عليه الجنة » فقال له رجل : وإن كان شيئا يسيرا يا رسول الله؟ قال : « وإن كان قضيبا من أراك ». رواه مسلم.
Narrated Abu Umamah al-Harithi (RA): Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said. "If anyone seized - by his oath - what rightly belongs to a Muslim, Allah has made the Hell-fire compulsory for him and forbidden for him the Paradise." A man asked, "O Allah's Messenger, even if it were something insignificant?" He replied, "Even if it were a stick from an Arak tree." [Reported by Muslim].

«أخرجه مسلم، الإيمان، باب وعيد من اقتطع حق مسلم بيمين فاجرة بالنار، حديث:137.»©Explanation: © Hadith Narrator:
«حضرت ابوامامہ رضی اللہ عنہ » This companion was Abu Umamah bin Tha'labah al-Ansari al-Harithi.
There is much difference of opinion regarding his name.
The correct view is that his name was Iyas bin Tha'labah.
He was from Banu Harith bin Khazraj.
One opinion is that he was from the allied tribe of the Ansar, Banu Baliyy, and he was among the early Muslims from the noble Companions (radi Allahu anhum).
Due to caring for his mother, he was unable to participate in the Battle of Badr.
