Q
What are the consequences of taking a false oath to unjustly acquire someone else’s property?
A
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Whoever takes a false oath in order to grab another man’s (or his brother’s)

revealing the Divine Verse: “Verily! Those who purchase a little gain at the cost of Allah’s Covenant
and their oaths . . . Will get painful punishment.” (3.77) Al-Ash’ath met me and asked, “What did
`Abdullah tell you today?” I said, “So and so.” He said, “The Verse was revealed regarding my case.”
