حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاق بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، أَخْبَرَنَا جَرِيرٌ ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، قَالَ : " مَنْ حَلَفَ عَلَى يَمِينٍ ، يَسْتَحِقُّ بِهَا مَالًا ، وهُوَ فِيهَا فَاجِرٌ ، لَقِيَ اللَّهَ وَهُوَ عَلَيْهِ غَضْبَانُ " ، ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ نَحْوَ حَدِيثِ الأَعْمَشِ ، غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ : كَانَتْ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ رَجُلٍ خُصُومَةٌ فِي بِئْرٍ ، فَاخْتَصَمْنَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ : شَاهِدَاكَ أَوْ يَمِينُهُ .
It is narrated on the authority of 'Abdullah that he heard the Prophet (ﷺ) saying: He who took an oath in order to entitle himself (to the possession) of a property, whereas he is a liar, would meet Allah in a state that He would be very much angry with him. Then the remaining part of the hadith was narrated as transmitted by A'mash but with the exception of these words: There was a dispute between me and another person in regard to a well. We referred this dispute to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) . Upon this he remarked: Either (you should produce) two witnesses (to support your contention) or his oath (would be accepted as valid).
