Abu Sa'id Al-Khudri (May Allah be pleased with him) said:
The Prophet ﷺ said, "Every one who breaks a covenant will have a flag by his buttocks on the Day of Resurrection. It will be raised higher according to the nature of his breach. Behold, there will be no greater a sin with respect to breaking the covenant than that of a ruler who breaks his covenant with the Muslim masses."
[Muslim].
وعن أبي سعيد الخدري رضي الله عنه أن النبي ﷺ قال : " لكل غادر لواء عند استه يوم القيامة يرفع له بقدر غدره، ألا لا غادر أعظم غدرًا من أمير عامة" ((رواه مسلم)).

Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:
The Prophet ﷺ said, "Allah, the Exalted, says: 'I will contend on the Day of Resurrection against three (types of) people: One who makes a covenant in My Name and then breaks it; one who sells a free man as a slave and devours his price; and one who hires a workman and having taken full work from him, does not pay him his wages."'
[Al-Bukhari].
وعن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه عن النبي ﷺ قال: " قال الله تعالى: ثلاثة أنا خصمهم يوم القيامة : رجل أعطى بي ثم غدر، ورجل باع حرًا فأكل ثمنه، ورجل استأجر أجيرًا، فاستوفى منه، ولم يعطه أجره" ((رواه البخاري)).

Abu Dharr (May Allah be pleased with him) said:
The Prophet ﷺ observed: "There are three (types of) people to whom Allah will neither speak on the Day of Resurrection nor look at them nor purify them, and they will have a painful chastisement." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ repeated it three times. Abu Dharr (May Allah be pleased with him) remarked: "They are ruined. Who are they, O Messenger of Allah?" Upon this, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "One who lets down his lower garments (below his ankels) out of arrogance, one who boasts of his favours done to another; and who sells his goods by taking a false oath."
[Muslim].
وعن أبي ذر رضي الله عنه عن النبي ﷺ قال: " ثلاثة لا يكلمهم الله يوم القيامة ولا ينظر إليهم، ولا يزكيهم ولهم عذاب أليم" قال: فقرأها رسول الله ﷺ ثلاث مرار. قال أبو ذر: خابوا وخسروا من هم يا رسول الله؟ قال: المسبل، والمنان، والمنفق سلعته بالحلف الكاذب" ((رواه مسلم)). وفي رواية له : " المسبل إزاره" يعني: المسبل إزاره وثوبه أسفل من الكعبين للخُيلاء.
