2442. It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said:[1] (Allāh says:) "I am the opponent of three on the Day of Resurrection, and if I am someone's opponent I will defeat him: A man who makes promises in My Name, then proves [1] This narration is a Hadith Qudsi, as clearly narrated by Ahmad (2:358) and Bukhārī (2227 and 2270) in which it says: "Allāh said: 'I am....'" treacherous; a man who sells a free man and consumes his price; and a man who hires a worker, makes use of him, then does not give him his wages." (Sahih)

2442 - حَدَّثَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَلِيمٍ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " ثَلَاثَةٌ أَنَا خَصْمُهُمْ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ، وَمَنْ كُنْتُ خَصْمَهُ خَصَمْتُهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ: رَجُلٌ أَعْطَى بِي، ثُمَّ غَدَرَ، وَرَجُلٌ بَاعَ حُرًّا فَأَكَلَ ثَمَنَهُ، وَرَجُلٌ اسْتَأْجَرَ أَجِيرًا، فَاسْتَوْفَى مِنْهُ وَلَمْ يُوفِهِ أَجْرَهُ "

Commentary

The three sins mentioned in the narration belong to the category of 'Rights of human beings' and they are ranked in the class of 'Major Sins'. To escape from the humiliation and punishment on the Day of Resurrection it is necessary to escape from these major sins. In an Islamic society, great importance has been given to justice and equity, rather the base and foundation of an Islamic society is justice and equity. All Muslims, collectively and individually, should exert themselves to create a true Muslim society, and they should do so as their religious obligation.
