Surah Al-Imran (3:77)

اِنَّ الَّذِيۡنَ يَشۡتَرُوۡنَ بِعَهۡدِ اللّٰهِ وَاَيۡمَانِهِمۡ ثَمَنًا قَلِيۡلًا اُولٰٓٮِٕكَ لَا خَلَاقَ لَهُمۡ فِى الۡاٰخِرَةِ وَلَا يُكَلِّمُهُمُ اللّٰهُ وَلَا يَنۡظُرُ اِلَيۡهِمۡ يَوۡمَ الۡقِيٰمَةِ وَلَا يُزَكِّيۡهِمۡ وَلَهُمۡ عَذَابٌ اَ لِيۡمٌ‏ ۝

Inna allatheena yashtaroona biAAahdiAllahi waaymanihim thamanan qaleelan ola-ikala khalaqa lahum fee al-akhirati walayukallimuhumu Allahu wala yanthuruilayhim yawma alqiyamati wala yuzakkeehim walahumAAathabun aleem

Indeed, those who exchange the covenant of Allāh and their own oaths for a small price will have no share in the Hereafter, and Allāh will not speak to them or look at them on the Day of Resurrection, nor will He purify them; and they will have a painful punishment.

Tadabbur (Reflection)

Theme of the Ayat

The Price of Breach: Trading truth and oaths for a small price leads to eternal loss.

The Insight

Those who break their covenant with God and violate their oaths to gain a small worldly price have no share in the Hereafter. Value your integrity above all wealth. Your spiritual integrity and reliability are your most valuable assets. Sacrificing them for a temporary financial gain guarantees ultimate and permanent loss.
