1217. Ibn 'Abbās narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said to the people of weights and measures: "Indeed you have been entrusted with two matters that nations preceding you in the past were destroyed for." (Da'if) [Abū 'Eisā said:] We do not know this Hadīth to be Marfū' except through the narration of Husain bin Qais, and Husain bin Qais was graded weak in Hadīth. This has been reported as a Maqūf narration from Ibn 'Abbās with a Ṣaḥīh chain of narration.
١٢١٧ - حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ الطَّالْقَانِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْوَاسِطِيُّ ، عَنْ حُسَيْنِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ: «قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِأَصْحَابِ الْكَيْلِ وَالْمِيزَانِ: إِنَّكُمْ وُلِّيتُمْ أَمْرَيْنِ هَلَكَ فِيهِمَا أُمَمٌ سَالِفَةٌ قَبْلَكُمْ». هَذَا حَدِيثٌ لَا نَعْرِفُهُ مَرْفُوعًا إِلَّا مِنْ حَدِيثِ حُسَيْنِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ، وَحُسَيْنُ بْنُ قَيْسٍ يُضَعَّفُ فِي الْحَدِيثِ. وَقَدْ رُوِيَ هَذَا بِإِسْنَادٍ صَحِيحٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ مَوْقُوفًا.

The Qur'ān mentions the destruction and extermination of the people of Shu'aib due to their cheating and deceiving in weights and measures. There were many tribes in this nation and all of them were involved in this vice and Allāh destroyed them all.
