وَعَنْ جَابِرٍ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ: «مَنِ اعْتَذَرَ إِلَى أَخِيهِ فَلَمْ يَعْذِرْهُ أَوْ لَمْ يَقْبَلْ عُذْرَهُ كَانَ عَلَيْهِ مثلُ خَطِيئَة صَاحب المكس» . رَوَاهُمَا الْبَيْهَقِيُّ فِي «شُعَبِ الْإِيمَانِ» وَقَالَ: الْمَكَّاسُ: الْعَشَّارُ
Jabir Narrated from:
Allah's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "He who excuses himself to his brother but he does not excuse him (rejecting his plea as a lie), or does not accept his excuse (even though he knows it to be genuine), he (who turns down his excuse) is as sinful as a sahib maks (the tax collector)." [1] Bayhaqi transmitted saying that makkas is he who collects taxes.
