The Messenger of Allah ﷺ addressed the people and said, "Beware of greed, for those who came before you were destroyed by greed. It commanded them to be stingy, so they were stingy. It commanded them to sever ties, so they severed ties. It commanded them to commit wickedness, so they committed wickedness."
حدثنا حفص بن عمر حدثنا شعبة عن عمرو بن مرة عن عبد الله بن الحارث عن أبي كثير
خطب رسول الله ﷺ فقال إياكم والشح فإنما هلك من كان قبلكم بالشح أمرهم بالبخل فبخلوا وأمرهم بالقطيعة فقطعوا وأمرهم بالفجور ففجروا
