Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ نُمَيْرٍ حَدَّثَنَا الْحَارِثُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ حَدَّثَنَا كُرْدُوسٌ عَنِ الْأَشْعَثِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ أَنَّ رَجُلًا مِنْ كِنْدَةَ وَرَجُلًا مِنْ حَضْرَمَوْتَ اخْتَصَمَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي أَرْضٍ بِالْيَمَنِ فَقَالَ الْحَضْرَمِيُّ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَرْضِي اغْتَصَبَهَا هَذَا وَأَبُوهُ فَقَالَ الْكِنْدِيُّ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَرْضِي وَرِثْتُهَا مِنْ أَبِي فَقَالَ الْحَضْرَمِيُّ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ اسْتَحْلِفْهُ أَنَّهُ مَا يَعْلَمُ أَنَّهَا أَرْضِي وَأَرْضُ وَالِدِي وَالَّذِي اغْتَصَبَهَا أَبُوهُ فَتَهَيَّأَ الْكِنْدِيُّ لِلْيَمِينِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَّهُ لَا يَقْتَطِعُ عَبْدٌ أَوْ رَجُلٌ بِيَمِينِهِ مَالًا إِلَّا لَقِيَ اللَّهَ يَوْمَ يَلْقَاهُ وَهُوَ أَجْذَمُ فَقَالَ الْكِنْدِيُّ هِيَ أَرْضُهُ وَأَرْضُ وَالِدِهِ.
English Translation
'Abdullah b. Numayr told us, al-Harith b. Sulayman told us, Kurdus told us, from al-Ash'ath b. Qays, that a man from Kindah and a man from Hadramawt disputed before the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, concerning land in Yemen. The man from Hadramawt said: "O Messenger of Allah, this man and his father have usurped my land." The man from Kindah said: "O Messenger of Allah, it is my land which I inherited from my father." The man from Hadramawt said: "O Messenger of Allah, make him swear that he does not know it to be my land and my father's land, and that it was his father who usurped it." The man from Kindah prepared himself to take the oath, so the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "No servant or man seizes property by his oath but he will meet Allah on the day he meets Him while missing a hand." So the man from Kindah said: "It is his land and his father's land."
