It is narrated from Hazrat Adi (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man named Imru’ al-Qais bin ‘Abis from the tribe of Kindah had a dispute over a piece of land with a man from Hadhramaut in the presence of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) advised the Hadhrami to present witnesses, but he had no witnesses. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) then told Imru’ al-Qais to take an oath. The Hadhrami said, "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), if you allow him to take an oath, by the Lord of the Ka’bah, he will take my land." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Whoever takes a false oath in order to unlawfully seize his brother’s property will meet Allah while He is angry with him." Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) recited this verse: "Indeed, those who exchange Allah’s covenant and their oaths for a small price..." Imru’ al-Qais asked, "What will the one who gives up his right receive?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied, "Paradise." Imru’ al-Qais said, "Then bear witness, I have given up all the land in his favor."
It is narrated from Hazrat Adi bin Umairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: O people! Whoever among you is appointed to a task by us and he conceals from us even a thread or something less than that, it is a betrayal with which he will come on the Day of Resurrection. Upon hearing this, an Ansari of dark complexion stood up—he is still before my eyes—and said, O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), please take back the responsibility you assigned to me. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked, What happened? He said, I heard you say this. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Then I now say that whoever we appoint to a responsibility should bring everything, whether little or much, to us. Then, whatever is given to him from it, he may take, and from whatever he is forbidden, he should refrain. The previous hadith is also narrated through this second chain.
