Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) delivered a sermon to us, in which he mentioned betrayal and explained its severity, saying: "O people! I should not find any of you on the Day of Resurrection in such a state that he has taken a camel and it is groaning, and he says: O Messenger of Allah! Help me, and I will say: I cannot do anything for you before Allah; I have conveyed the commands to you. I should not find any of you on the Day of Resurrection in such a state that he comes carrying a goat and it is bleating, and that person says: O Messenger of Allah! Help me, and I will say: I cannot do anything for you before Allah; I have conveyed the commands to you. I should not find any of you on the Day of Resurrection in such a state that he has taken a horse and it is neighing, and that person says: O Messenger of Allah! Help me, and I will say: I cannot do anything for you before Allah; I have conveyed the commands to you. I should not find any of you on the Day of Resurrection in such a state that he has taken a soul and it is screaming, and that person will say: O Messenger of Allah! Help me, and I will say: I cannot do anything for you before Allah; I have conveyed the commands to you. I should not find any of you on the Day of Resurrection in such a state that he has taken a piece of cloth and it is moving, and that person says: O Messenger of Allah! Help me, and I will say: I cannot do anything for you before Allah; I have conveyed the commands to you. I should not find any of you on the Day of Resurrection in such a state that he has taken gold or silver and he says: O Messenger of Allah! Help me, and I will say: I cannot do anything for you before Allah; I have conveyed the commands to you."
