Jami' at-Tirmidhi — Hadith #27498

Qutaibah narrated to us, Abu Al-Ahwas narrated to us, on the authority of Samak ibn Harb, on the authority of Alqamah ibn Wa’il ibn Hajar, on the authority of his father, he said: A man came from Hadhramaut and a man from Kinda went to the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace. The Hadhrami said, O Messenger of God, this man has defeated me on a land of mine. So Al-Kindi said It is my land and in my hand he has no right to it. So the Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, said to Al-Hadrami, “Do you have any proof?” He said, “No.” He said, “You have his oath.” “He said, ‘O Messenger of God, the man is an immoral person. He does not care about what he swore to do, and he is not hesitant about anything.’ He said, ‘You do not have the right to do anything with him.’” “Except that.” He said, so the man went off to swear to him, and the Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, said when he finished, “If he swore on your property, he would devour it unjustly.” He will meet God while He is turning away from Him.” He said, “And on the authority of Omar, Ibn Abbas, Abdullah Ibn Amr, and Al-Ash’ath Ibn Qais.” Abu Issa said: The hadith of Wael bin Hajr is a hasan and authentic hadith.
