Rifā'ah Ibn-Rāfi' Ibn-Mālik reported that he went out to the mosque with the Prophet, peace and blessings of God be upon him. The Prophet, peace and blessings of God be upon him, saw people buying and selling so he called to them, "Merchants!" They raised their heads and looked at him, in response, so he said, "Indeed, merchants are raised on the Day of Resurrection as evildoers(1), except those who are mindful of God, righteous and honest." Footnotes: (1) This is because of the propensity of merchants to exaggerate the value of their merchandise and to swear by God to validate their deception. Click on ḥadīth to read more
The Prophet, peace and blessings of God be upon him, said, " There are three [types of people] whom God, on the Day of Resurrection, will not regard [with mercy]; He will not purify them from their sins; and they will receive a severe punishment." Abū-Tharr asked, "Who are they, Messenger of God, for they have failed and lost?" He replied, "Those who persist in reminding their beneficiaries of their charity, those whose waist wrappers (1) reach beyond the soles of their feet (2) and those who market their goods using false oaths." Footnotes: (1) (Izār): A cloth wrapped around the waist, similar to a sarong, which covers from the navel to below the knees. (2) i.e., trailing their garments as a sign of luxury out of arrogance. This applies only to men. Click on ḥadīth to read more
