وَعَنْ جَابِرٍ رَضِيَ اللَّه عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّه عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: اتَّقُوا الظُّلْمَ فَإِنَّ الظُّلْمَ ظُلُمَاتٌ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَاتَّقُوا الشُّحَّ فَإِنَّ الشُّحَّ أَهْلَكَ مَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمْ حَمَلَهُمْ عَلَى أَنْ سَفَكُوا دِمَاءَهُمْ وَاسْتَحَلُّوا مَحَارِمهمْ” ((رَوَاهُ مُسلم)).
Jabir bin 'Abdullah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "Beware of oppression, for oppression will be darkness on the Day of Resurrection; and beware of stinginess because it destroyed those who were before you. It incited them to shed their blood and deem unlawful as lawful." [Muslim].
