Narrated Abu Wail:`Abdullah bin Masud said, "Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, 'Whoever takes an oath when asked to do so, in which he may deprive a Muslim of his property unlawfully, will meet Allah Who will be angry with him.' So Allah revealed in confirmation of this statement:--"Verily! Those who Purchase a small gain at the cost of Allah's Covenant and oaths, they shall have no portion in the Hereafter..." (3.77) Then entered Al-Ash'ath bin Qais and said, "What is Abu `Abdur-Rahman narrating to you?" We replied, 'So-and-so." Al-Ash'ath said, "This Verse was revealed in my connection. I had a well in the land of my cousin (and he denied my, possessing it). On that the Prophet (ﷺ) said to me, 'Either you bring forward a proof or he (i.e. your cousin) takes an oath (to confirm his claim)' I said, 'I am sure he would take a (false) oath, O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ).' He said, 'If somebody takes an oath when asked to do so through which he may deprive a Muslim of his property (unlawfully) and he is a liar in his oath, he will meet Allah Who will be angry with him

حدثنا حجاج بن منهال، حدثنا ابو عوانة، عن الاعمش، عن ابي وايل، عن عبد الله بن مسعود رضى الله عنه قال قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم " من حلف يمين صبر ليقتطع بها مال امري مسلم، لقي الله وهو عليه غضبان ". فانزل الله تصديق ذلك {ان الذين يشترون بعهد الله وايمانهم ثمنا قليلا اوليك لا خلاق لهم في الاخرة} الى اخر الاية. قال فدخل الاشعث بن قيس وقال ما يحدثكم ابو عبد الرحمن قلنا كذا وكذا. قال في انزلت كانت لي بير في ارض ابن عم لي قال النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم " بينتك او يمينه " فقلت اذا يحلف يا رسول الله. فقال النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم " من حلف على يمين صبر يقتطع بها مال امري مسلم وهو فيها فاجر، لقي الله وهو عليه غضبان
