bin Maslama went to Ka'b and said, "I want a loan of one
or two Wasqs of food grains." Ka'b said, "Mortgage your
women to me." Muhammad bin Maslama said, "How can we
mortgage our women, and you are the most handsome among
the Arabs?" He said, "Then mortgage your sons to me."
Muhammad said, "How can we mortgage our sons, as the
people will abuse them for being mortgaged for one or two
Wasqs of food grains? It is shameful for us. But we will
mortgage our arms to you." So, Muhammad bin Maslama
promised him that he would come to him next time. They
(Muhammad bin Maslama and his companions came to him as
promised and murdered him. Then they went to the Prophet
and told him about it.

their oaths...a painful torment." (3.77)
Al-Ash'ath bin Qais came to us and asked as to what Abu
Abdur-Rehman (i.e. Ibn Mas'ud) was telling you." We
related the story to him. On that he said, "He has told
the truth. This verse was revealed about me. I had some
dispute with another man regarding a well and we took the
case before Allah's Apostle. Allah's Apostle said (to me),
"Produce two witnesses (to support your claim); otherwise
the defendant has the right to take an oath (to refute
your claim).' I said, 'The defendant would not mind to
take a false oath." Allah's Apostle then said, 'Whoever
took a false oath in order to grab someone else's property
will meet Allah, Allah will be angry with him.' Allah then
revealed what Confirmed it." Al-Ash'ath then recited the
following Verse:--"Verily! Those who purchase a small gain
at the cost of Allah's covenant, And their oaths . . .
(to) . . . they shall have a painful torment!' (3.77) (See
Hadith No. 546)
