The Consequences of Wrongful Taxation

SUMMARY: Taking an extra tax without justification is wrong and will lead to punishment in the afterlife.

Narrated Uqbah ibn Amir: I heard the Messenger of Allah as saying: One who wrongfully takes an extra tax (sahib Maks) will not enter Paradise.
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ النُّفَيْلِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ شِمَاسَةَ، عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ ‏ "‏ لاَ يَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ صَاحِبُ مَكْسٍ
