وَعَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ: «لَا تُمَارِ أَخَاكَ وَلَا تُمَازِحْهُ وَلَا تَعِدْهُ مَوْعِدًا فَتُخْلِفَهُ» . رَوَاهُ التِّرْمِذِيُّ وَقَالَ: هَذَا حديثٌ غَرِيب وَهَذَا الْبَابُ خَالٍ عَنِ الْفَصْلِ الثَّالِثِ
Ibn 'Abbas Narrated from:
Allah's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "Do not quarrel with your Muslim brother. Do not make jokes with him (as cause him displeasure). And, do not make such a promise to him as you break." (Shaykh Abdul Haq رحمه الله has translated the last sentence: 'Do not make a promise as is done usually, so that you may not betray. If you promise fulfil it, or abstain from making a promise outright so that there is no fear of committing perjury.' [1])
