حديث أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: وَاللهِ لأَنْ يَلِجَّ أَحَدُكُمْ بِيَمِينِهِ فِي أَهْلِهِ آثَمُ لَهُ عِنْدَ اللهِ مِنْ أَنْ يُعْطِيَ كَفَّارَتَهُ الَّتِي افْتَرَضَ اللهُ عَلَيْهِ.
Abu Hurairah Narrated from:
The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "We (Muslims) are the last (to come) in the world, but (will be) foremost on the Day of Resurrection". Allâh's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم added, "By Allâh, if anyone of you insists on fulfilling an oath by which he may harm his family, he commits a greater sin, in Allâh's consideration than that of dissolving his oath and making its expiation with that which Allâh تعالى has commanded." (See the Qur'ân V.5:89). ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 621, Vol. 8 )
