Translation

Abdullah ibn Amr (may Allah be pleased with them both) reported: A Bedouin came to the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) and said, ‘Messenger of Allah, what are the major sins?’ The report continues… It includes: I asked, ‘What is the engulfing oath?’ He replied, ‘It is when someone falsely swears an oath in order to seize the property of a Muslim.’ Al-Bukhari transmitted it. It is authentic; al-Bukhari transmitted it (6920).
