أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَاتِمٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا حَبَّانُ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ عَنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ الْكِنْدِيِّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا كُرْدُوسُ الثَّعْلَبِيُّ عَنِ الْأَشْعَثِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ قَالَ
اخْتَصَمَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ حَضْرَمَوْتَ وَرَجُلٌ مِنْ كِنْدَةَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ الْحَضْرَمِيُّ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَرْضِي فِي يَدِ هَذَا اغْتَصَبَنِيهَا أَبُوهُ فَقَالَ الْكِنْدِيُّ أَرْضِي فِي يَدِي وَرِثْتُهَا عَنْ أَبِي فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «أَلَكَ بَيِّنَةٌ يَا أَخَا حَضْرَمَوْتَ؟» قَالَ لَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ وَلَكِنْ خُذْ لِي بِيَمِينِهِ مَا يَعْلَمُ أَنَّهَا أَرْضِي اغْتَصَبَنِيهَا أَبُوهُ فَتَهَيَّأَ الْكِنْدِيُّ لِيَحْلِفَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «مَنِ اقْتَطَعَ مَالًا بِيَمِينِهِ لَقِيَ اللهَ أَجْدَعَ» فَلَمَّا سَمِعَهَا الْكِنْدِيُّ كَفَّ عَنِ الْيَمِينِ وَأَعْطَاهُ الْأَرْضَ

✧ A man from Hadramawt and a man from Kindah brought a dispute to the Prophet ﷺ. The Hadrami said: O Messenger of Allah, my land is in this man's possession; his father seized it from me. The Kindi said: My land is in my possession; I inherited it from my father. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Do you have evidence, O brother of Hadramawt? He said: No, O Messenger of Allah, but make him swear by oath that he does not know that it is my land which his father seized from me. The Kindi prepared to swear. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Whoever seizes property by his oath will meet Allah mutilated. When the Kindi heard it, he refrained from the oath and gave him the land.
