Sahih al-Bukhari 6939 (Book 93, Hadith 72)
the Day of Resurrection nor will purify them from sins, and they will have a painful punishment: They
are, (1) a man possessed superfluous water (more than he needs) on a way and he withholds it from
the travelers. (2) a man who gives a pledge of allegiance to an Imam (ruler) and gives it only for
worldly benefits, if the Imam gives him what he wants, he abides by his pledge, otherwise he does not
fulfill his pledge; (3) and a man who sells something to another man after the `Asr prayer and swears
by Allah (a false oath) that he has been offered so much for it whereupon the buyer believes him and
buys it although in fact, the seller has not been offered such a price.” (See Hadith No. 838, Vol. 3)
“ ثَلاَثَةٌ لاَ يُكَلِّمُهُمُ اللَّهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ، وَلاَ يُزَكِّيهِمْ، وَلَهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ رَجُلٌ عَلَى فَضْلِ مَاءٍ بِالطَّرِيقِ يَمْنَعُ مِنْهُ ابْنَ السَّبِيلِ، وَرَجُلٌ بَايَعَ إِمَامًا لاَ يُبَايِعُهُ إِلاَّ لِدُنْيَاهُ، إِنْ أَعْطَاهُ مَا يُرِيدُ وَفَى لَهُ، وَإِلاَّ لَمْ يَفِ لَهُ، وَرَجُلٌ يُبَايِعُ رَجُلاً بِسِلْعَةٍ بَعْدَ الْعَصْرِ فَحَلَفَ بِاللَّهِ لَقَدْ أُعْطِيَ بِهَا كَذَا وَكَذَا فَصَدَّقَهُ، فَأَخَذَهَا، وَلَمْ يُعْطَ بِهَا ”.
