2675. Narrated ‘Abdullāh bin Abū Aufā: رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا: A man displayed some goods in the market and took a false oath that he had been offered so much for them, though he was not offered that amount. Then the following Divine Verse was revealed: “Verily, those who purchase a small gain at the cost of Allāh’s Covenant and their oaths.” (V.3:77) Ibn Abū Aufā added, “Such person as described above is a treacherous Ribā-eater (i.e., eater of usury).”
