(11) – باب النَّهْىِ أَنْ يَسْتَلِجَّ الرَّجُلُ فِي يَمِينِهِ وَلاَ يُكَفِّرَ
(11) – Prohibition of a man insisting on what he swore about, and not offering expiation
Sunan Ibn Majah 2114
It was narrated that Hammam heard Abu Hurairah saying that 'Abul-Qasim ﷺ said:
"If anyone of you insists on fulfilling what he swore to (after learning that it is wrong) then it is more sinful before Allah than (breaking the oath for which) the expiation that has been enjoined upon him."
حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ وَكِيعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ الْمَعْمَرِيُّ، عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ، عَنْ هَمَّامٍ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، يَقُولُ قَالَ أَبُو الْقَاسِمِ ﷺ " إِذَا اسْتَلَجَّ أَحَدُكُمْ فِي الْيَمِينِ فَإِنَّهُ آثَمُ لَهُ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ مِنَ الْكَفَّارَةِ الَّتِي أُمِرَ بِهَا " .
