Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 1559 — he said: I once bought my oath for seventy
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ ، قَالَ : نَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ الْأَسْفَاطِيُّ قَالَ : نَا صَفْوَانُ بْنُ هُبَيْرَةَ قَالَ : نَا عِيسَى بْنُ الْمُسَيِّبِ الْبَجَلِيُّ الْقَاضِي عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ . عَنِ الْأَشْعَثِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ قَالَ : اشْتَرَيْتُ يَمِينِي مَرَّةً بِسَبْعِينَ أَلْفًا ، وَذَلِكَ لِأَنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ -صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ- يَقُولُ : مَنِ اقْتَطَعَ حَقَّ مُسْلِمٍ بِيَمِينٍ لَقِيَ اللهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَهُوَ عَلَيْهِ غَضْبَانُ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna al-Ash'ath bin Qays (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: "I once bought my oath for seventy thousand, and that was because I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: 'Whoever usurps the right of a Muslim by means of a (false) oath will meet Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, while He is angry with him.'"
