Abu Salamah says that once Marwan said, "Go and reconcile between the two of them, that is, between Sayyiduna Sa'id bin Zayd (may Allah be pleased with him) and the narrator." Sayyiduna Sa'id (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "Do you think that I have usurped any right of that woman? I am an eyewitness to this matter. I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: 'Whoever unjustly seizes even a handspan of land, a collar of that land, taken from all seven earths, will be placed around his neck. And whoever establishes an alliance with a people without their permission, upon him is the curse of Allah. And whoever, by swearing an oath, unlawfully acquires the wealth of a Muslim, Allah will never bless it for him.'"
