3335. It was reported from Ibn Shihāb who said: "Ibn Al-Musayyab said to me: "Indeed, Abū Hurairah said: 'I heard the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ say: An oath may sell the product but it erases the blessing.'" (Sahih) Ibn As-Sarh (one of the narrators) said: "it erases) the earning." And he reported it (with the chain) from Sa'eed bin Al-Musayyab, from Abū Hurairah, from the Prophet ﷺ.

Commentary

Muslim traders should give up the customary habit of swearing in turn and out of turn, and give charities so that they might serve as expiation for any misdeeds committed by them.
