Sahih Muslim 2613d (Book 45, Hadith 157) #13735
The Consequences of Tormenting People

SUMMARY: This hadith is about how Allah will punish those who oppress and torment people in the world.

'Urwa b. Zubair reported that Hisham b. Hakim found a person (the ruler of Hims) who had been detaining some Nabateans in connection with the dues of Jizya. He said: What is this? I heard Allah's Messenger as saying: Allah would torment those persons who torment people in the world.
حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو الطَّاهِرِ، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، أَخْبَرَنِي يُونُسُ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ أَنَّ هِشَامَ بْنَ حَكِيمٍ، وَجَدَ رَجُلاً وَهُوَ عَلَى حِمْصَ يُشَمِّسُ نَاسًا مِنَ النَّبَطِ فِي أَدَاءِ الْجِزْيَةِ فَقَالَ مَا هَذَا إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ يَقُولُ ‏ "‏ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يُعَذِّبُ الَّذِينَ يُعَذِّبُونَ النَّاسَ فِي الدُّنْيَا

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks to the consequences of oppressing or tormenting people in the world. It was reported by 'Urwa b. Zubair that Hisham b. Hakim found a person who was detaining some Nabateans in connection with the dues of Jizya, which is a tax imposed on non-Muslims living under Muslim rule for protection from outside forces. When Hisham asked what this was about, he heard Allah's Messenger say that Allah would punish those who torment people in this world. This hadith serves as a reminder to all Muslims that they should not oppress or mistreat others because they will be held accountable for their actions by Allah on Judgment Day and punished accordingly for any wrongdoings committed against others during their lifetime on earth.

This hadith also teaches us an important lesson about justice and fairness; it reminds us that we should always strive to treat others with respect and kindness regardless of their religion or background because we are all equal before God and no one has the right to mistreat another human being without facing consequences from Him eventually.
