The oath before a judge to seize another person's wealth
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. If a man swears a great oath with a large amount of money, before a judge, and he is a disbeliever before you.
Answer:
This falls under the saying of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)Sunan al-Bayhaqi 18:180 and He was angry with him. This is more severe because he seizes wealth by it. First, he has belittled the oath and the sanctity of the oath. Second, he has consumed the wealth of others without right and seized their wealth by it. So the sin in it is multiplied, and I seek refuge in Allah. Therefore, the oath before a judge is not permissible except with truth and righteousness.

Whoever swears a false oath to seize the wealth of a Muslim man, while he is lying in it, will meet Allah
من حلف على يمين صبر ليقتطع بها مال امرئ مسلم هو فيها كاذب لقي الله
