I witnessed the Prophet (ﷺ) offering the `Id prayer (and after finishing it) he delivered a sermon and said,
"Whoever has slaughtered his sacrifice (before the prayer) should make up for it (i.e. slaughter another
animal) and whoever has not slaughtered his sacrifice yet, should slaughter it by mentioning Allah's
Name over it." Sahih al-Bukhari Book 83, Hadith 52

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "If somebody is ordered (by the ruler or the judge) to take an oath, and he takes a
false oath in order to grab the property of a Muslim, then he will incur Allah's Wrath when he will
meet Him." And Allah revealed in its confirmation: 'Verily! Those who purchase a small gain at the
cost of Allah's covenants and their own oaths.' (3.77) (The sub-narrator added:) Al-Ash'ath bin Qais
entered, saying, "What did Abu `Abdur-Rahman narrate to you?" They said, "So-and-so," Al-Ash'ath
said, "This verse was revealed in my connection. I had a well on the land of my cousin (and we had a
dispute about it). I reported him to Allah 's Apostle who said (to me). "You should give evidence (i.e.
witness) otherwise the oath of your opponent will render your claim invalid." I said, "Then he (my
opponent) will take the oath, O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)." Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "Whoever is ordered (by the
ruler or the judge) to give an oath, and he takes a false oath in order to grab the property of a Muslim,
then he will incur Allah's Wrath when he meets Him on the Day of Resurrection." Sahih al-Bukhari Book 83, Hadith 54
