حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ بْنِ قَعْنَبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ، - يَعْنِي ابْنَ قَيْسٍ - عَنْ عُبَيْدِ، اللَّهِ بْنِ مِقْسَمٍ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏ "‏ اتَّقُوا الظُّلْمَ فَإِنَّ الظُّلْمَ ظُلُمَاتٌ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَاتَّقُوا الشُّحَّ فَإِنَّ الشُّحَّ أَهْلَكَ مَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمْ حَمَلَهُمْ عَلَى أَنْ سَفَكُوا دِمَاءَهُمْ وَاسْتَحَلُّوا مَحَارِمَهُمْ ‏"‏ .

English translation
Jabir b. Abdullah reported that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said: Be on your guard against committing oppression, for oppression is a darkness on the Day of Resurrection, and be on your guard against stinginess for stinginess destroyed those who were before you, as it incited them to shed blood and make lawful what was unlawful for them
বাংলা অনুবাদ
আবদুল্লাহ ইবনু মাসলামাহ্ ইবনু কা'নাব (রহঃ) ..... জাবির ইবনু আবদুল্লাহ (রাযিঃ) থেকে বর্ণিত যে, রসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেছেনঃ তোমরা অত্যাচার করা থেকে বিরত থাক। কেননা কিয়ামত দিবসে অত্যাচার অন্ধকারে পরিণত হবে। তোমরা কৃপণতা থেকে সাবধান হও। কেননা এ কৃপণতাই তোমাদের আগেকার কাওমকে ধ্বংস করেছে। এ কৃপণতা তাদের খুন-খারাবী ও রক্তপাতে উৎসাহ যুগিয়েছে এবং হারাম বস্তুসমূহ হালাল জ্ঞান করতে প্রলোভন দিয়েছে। (ইসলামিক ফাউন্ডেশন ৬৩৪০, ইসলামিক সেন্টার)
