أَخْبَرَنَا مُجَاهِدُ بْنُ مُوسَى، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنْ جَامِعِ بْنِ أَبِي رَاشِدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " مَا مِنْ رَجُلٍ لَهُ مَالٌ لاَ يُؤَدِّي حَقَّ مَالِهِ إِلاَّ جُعِلَ لَهُ طَوْقًا فِي عُنُقِهِ شُجَاعٌ أَقْرَعُ وَهُوَ يَفِرُّ مِنْهُ وَهُوَ يَتْبَعُهُ " . ثُمَّ قَرَأَ مِصْدَاقَهُ مِنْ كِتَابِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ { وَلاَ تَحْسَبَنَّ الَّذِينَ يَبْخَلُونَ بِمَا آتَاهُمُ اللَّهُ مِنْ فَضْلِهِ هُوَ خَيْرًا لَهُمْ بَلْ هُوَ شَرٌّ لَهُمْ سَيُطَوَّقُونَ مَا بَخِلُوا بِهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ } الآيَةَ .
Mujahid ibn Musa reported: Ibn Uyaynah narrated to us, from Jami ibn Abi Rashid, from Abu Wail, from Abdullah, who said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Any man who has wealth but does not pay its due will have a bald serpent made into a collar around his neck; he will flee from it, but it will pursue him. Then he recited as confirmation from the Book of Allah, Mighty and Majestic: Do not think that those who withhold what Allah has given them from His bounty—that it is good for them. Rather, it is bad for them. What they withheld will be placed around their necks on the Day of Resurrection. [The rest of] the verse.
Translation notes
The Arabic cites the verse as confirmation of the report and ends with the phrase the verse, indicating that the quotation continues beyond the excerpt. The narrator is named only as Abdullah here.
