حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ، أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ بْنِ وَائِلٍ، عَنْ وَائِلِ بْنِ حُجْرٍ قَالَ: كُنْتُ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَتَاهُ رَجُلَانِ يَخْتَصِمَانِ فِي أَرْضٍ، فَقَالَ أَحَدُهُمَا: إِنَّ هَذَا انْتَزَى عَلَى أَرْضِي يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ وَهُوَ امْرُؤُ الْقَيْسِ بْنُ عَابِسٍ الْكِنْدِيُّ وَخَصْمُهُ رَبِيعَةُ بْنُ عَبْدَانَ، فَقَالَ لَهُ: " بَيِّنَتُكَ " قَالَ: لَيْسَ لِي بَيِّنَةٌ، قَالَ: " يَمِينُهُ " قَالَ: إِذًا يَذْهَبُ بِهَا (٢) ، قَالَ: " لَيْسَ لَكَ إِلَّا ذَلِكَ ". قَالَ: فَلَمَّا قَامَ لِيَحْلِفَ، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " مَنْ اقْتَطَعَ أَرْضًا ظَالِمًا لَقِيَ اللهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَهُوَ عَلَيْهِ، ، غَضْبَانُ " (١)، ،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Wa'il (may Allah be pleased with him) that once I was present in the service of the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) when two men came to the Prophet (ﷺ) with a dispute over a piece of land. One of them said, "O Messenger of Allah! This person seized my land during the time of ignorance." (The one who said this was Amr al-Qais bin Abis Kindi and his opponent was Rabee'ah bin Abdan.) The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) demanded witnesses from him, but he said, "I have no witnesses." The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Then he will take an oath." He said, "In that case, he will take my land." The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said, "There is no other solution besides this." When the other man began to take the oath, the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Whoever unjustly seizes someone else's land will meet Allah on the Day of Resurrection in such a state that Allah will be angry with him."
