Musnad Abi Ya'la 7274 — two men from Hadramawt came to the Messenger
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ ، عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ بُرْقَانَ ، عَنْ ثَابِتِ بْنِ الْحَجَّاجِ ، عَنْ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ : اخْتَصَمَ رَجُلَانِ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - مِنْ حَضْرَمَوْتَ فِي أَرْضٍ ، فَقَالَ لِلْمُدَّعَى عَلَيْهِ : « احْلِفْ » ، فَقَالَ الْمُدَّعِي : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ! مَا لِي إِلَّا يَمِينُهُ ؟ إِذًا يَذْهَبُ بِأَرْضِي ، فَقَالَ : « إِنِ اقْتَطَعَهَا بِيَمِينِهِ ، كَانَ مِمَّنْ لَا يُكَلِّمُهُ اللهُ - عَزَّ وَجَلَّ - ، وَلَا يَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِ ، وَلَا يُزَكِّيهِ ، وَلَهُ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ » قَالَ : فَتَوَرَّعَ الْآخَرُ ، فَرَدَّهَا عَلَيْهِ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Musa al-Ash'ari (may Allah be pleased with him) that two men from Hadramawt came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) in a dispute over a piece of land. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said to the defendant (the one against whom the claim was made): "Take an oath." The claimant (the one making the claim) said: O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! Is there nothing for me except his oath? In that case he will take my land. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If he cuts off that piece of land by means of (a false) oath, he will be among those to whom Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, will not speak, nor look at (with mercy), nor purify, and for him there will be a painful punishment." The narrator said: (On hearing this warning) the other man became cautious out of piety and returned the land to him.
