There is No Share in the Hereafter for Those Who Break Allah's Covenant


Allah states that whoever prefers the small things of this short, soon to end life, instead of fulfilling what they have promised Allah by following Muhammad , announcing his description ﴿from their books﴾ to people and affirming his truth, then,

﴿ÃõæúáóÜÆößó áÇó ÎóáóÜÞó áóåõãú Ýöì ÇáÇøñÎöÑóÉö﴾

(they shall have no portion in the Hereafter.)

They will not have a share or part in the Hereafter's rewards,

﴿æóáÇó íõßóáøöãõåõãõ Çááøóåõ æóáÇó íóäÙõÑõ Åöáóíúåöãú íóæúãó ÇáúÞöíóÜãóÉö﴾

(Neither will Allah speak to them nor look at them on the Day of Resurrection) with His mercy. This Ayah indicates that Allah will not speak words of kindness nor look at them with any mercy,

﴿æóáÇó íõÒóßøöíåöãú﴾

(nor will He purify them) from sins and impurities. Rather, He will order them to the Fire,

﴿æóáóåõãú ÚóÐóÇÈñ Ãóáöíãñ﴾

(and they shall have a painful torment.)

There are several Hadiths on the subject of this Ayah, some of which follow. The First Hadith

Imam Ahmad recorded that Abu Dharr said, "The Messenger of Allah said, c

«ËóáóÇËóÉñ áóÇ íõßóáøöãõåõãõ Çááåõ¡ æóáóÇ íóäúÙõÑõ Åöáóíúåöãú íóæúãó ÇáúÞöíóÇãóÉö¡ æóáóÇ íõÒóßøöíåöãú¡ æóáóåõãú ÚóÐóÇÈñ Ãóáöíã»

ÞáÊ: íÇ ÑÓæá Çááå¡ ãä åã¿ ÎÇÈæÇ æÎÓÑæÇ ÞÇá: æÃÚÇÏå ÑÓæá ÇááåÕáì Çááå Úáíå æÓáøã ËáÇË ãÑÇÊ¡ ÞÇá:

«ÇáúãõÓúÈöáõ¡ æóÇáúãõäóÝøöÞõ ÓöáúÚóÊóåõ ÈöÇáúÍóáöÝö ÇáúßóÇÐöÈö¡ æóÇáúãóäøóÇä»

(There are three persons whom Allah will not speak to, look at on the Day of Resurrection or purify, and they shall taste a painful torment. I said, `O Messenger of Allah! Who are they, may they gain failure and loss' He said, repeating this statement thrice, `The Musbil (man whose clothes reach below the ankles), he who swears while lying so as to sell his merchandize and the one who gives charity and reminds people of it).')'' This was also recorded by Muslim, and the collectors of the Sunan. Another Hadith

Imam Ahmad recorded that `Adi bin `Amirah Al-Kindi said, "Imru' Al-Qays bin `Abis, a man from Kindah, disputed with a man from Hadramut in front of the Messenger of Allah concerning a piece of land. The Prophet required the man from Hadramut to present his evidence, but he did not have any. The Prophet required Imru' Al-Qays to swear to his truthfulness, but the man from Hadramut said, `O Messenger of Allah! If you only require him to swear, then by the Lord of the Ka`bah (Allah), my land is lost.' The Messenger of Allah said,

«ãóäú ÍóáóÝó Úóáì íóãöíäò ßóÇÐöÈóÉò áöíóÞúÊóØöÚó ÈöåóÇ ãóÇáó ÃóÍóÏò¡ áóÞöíó Çááåó ÚóÒøó æóÌóáøó æóåõæó Úóáóíúåö ÛóÖúÈóÇä»

(Whoever swears while lying to acquire the property of others, will meet Allah while He is angry with him.)'' Raja' one of the narrators of the Hadith, said that the Messenger of Allah then recited,

﴿Åöäøó ÇáøóÐöíäó íóÔúÊóÑõæäó ÈöÚóåúÏö Çááøóåö æóÃóíúãóÜäöåöãú ËóãóäðÇ ÞóáöíðáÇ﴾

(Verily, those who purchase a small gain at the cost of Allah's covenant and their oaths...)

Imru' Al-Qays said, `What if one forfeits this dispute, what will he gain, O Messenger of Allah' The Prophet answered, `Paradise.' Imru' Al-Qays said, `Bear witness that I forfeit all the land for him.''' An-Nasa'i also recorded this Hadith. Another Hadith

Imam Ahmad recorded that `Abdullah said that the Messenger of Allah said,

«ãóäú ÍóáóÝó Úóáì íóãöíäò åõæó ÝöíåóÇ ÝóÇÌöÑñ¡ áöíóÞúÊóØöÚó ÈöåóÇ ãóÇáó ÇãúÑöì ãõÓúáöãò¡ áóÞöíó Çááåó ÚóÒøó æóÌóáøó æóåõæó Úóáóíúåö ÛóÖúÈóÇä»

(Whoever takes a false oath to deprive a Muslim of his property will meet Allah while He is angry with him.)

Al-Ash`ath said, "By Allah! This verse was revealed concerning me. I owned some land with a Jewish man who denied my right, and I complained against him to the Messenger of Allah. The Prophet asked me, `Do you have evidence' I said, `I don't have evidence.' He said to the Jew, `Take an oath then.' I said, `O Allah's Messenger! He will take a (false) oath immediately, and I will lose my property.' Allah revealed the verse,

﴿Åöäøó ÇáøóÐöíäó íóÔúÊóÑõæäó ÈöÚóåúÏö Çááøóåö æóÃóíúãóÜäöåöãú ËóãóäðÇ ÞóáöíðáÇ﴾

(Verily, those who purchase a small gain at the cost of Allah's covenant and their oaths...)''

The Two Sahihs recorded this Hadith. Another Hadith

Imam Ahmad recorded that Abu Hurayrah said that the Messenger of Allah said,

«ËóáóÇËóÉñ áóÇ íõßóáøöãõåõãõ Çááåõ íóæúãó ÇáúÞöíóÇãóÉö¡ æóáóÇ íóäúÙõÑõ Åöáóíúåöãú¡ æóáóÇ íõÒóßøöíåöãú¡ æóáóåõãú ÚóÐóÇÈñ Ãóáöíãñ: ÑóÌõáñ ãóäóÚó ÇÈúäó ÇáÓøóÈöíáö ÝóÖúáó ãóÇÁò ÚöäúÏóåõ¡ æóÑóÌõáñ ÍóáóÝó Úóáì ÓöáúÚóÉò ÈóÚúÏó ÇáúÚóÕúÑö íóÚúäöí ßóÇÐöÈðÇ æóÑóÌõáñ ÈóÇíóÚó ÅöãóÇãðÇ¡ ÝóÅöäú ÃóÚúØóÇåõ æóÝóì áóåõ¡ æóÅöäú áóãú íõÚúØöåö áóãú íóÝö áóå»

(Three persons whom Allah shall not speak to on the Day of Resurrection, or look at, or purify them, and they shall taste a painful torment. (They are) a man who does not give the wayfarer some of the water that he has; a man who swears, while lying, in order to complete a sales transaction after the `Asr prayer; and a man who gives his pledge of allegiance to an Imam (Muslim Ruler), and if the Imam gives him (something), he fulfills the pledge, but if the Imam does not give him, he does not fulfill the pledge).

Abu Dawud and At-Tirmidhi also recorded this Hadith, and At-Tirmidhi graded it Hasan Sahih.

﴿æóÅöäøó ãöäúåõãú áóÝóÑöíÞðÇ íóáúæõæäó ÃóáúÓöäóÊóåõã ÈöÇáúßöÊóÜÈö áöÊóÍúÓóÈõæåõ ãöäó ÇáúßöÊóÜÈö æóãóÇ åõæó ãöäó ÇáúßöÊóÜÈö æóíóÞõæáõæäó åõæó ãöäú ÚöäÏö Çááøóåö æóãóÇ åõæó ãöäú ÚöäÏö Çááøóåö æóíóÞõæáõæäó Úóáóì Çááøóåö ÇáúßóÐöÈó æóåõãú íóÚúáóãõæäó ﴾

78. And verily, among them is a party who distort the Book with their tongues, so that you may think it is from the Book, but it is not from the Book, and they say: This is from Alla0h, but it is not from Alla0hº and they speak a lie against Alla0h while they know it.
