EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the Prophet Muhammad's (PBUH) condemnation of bribery. He cursed those who give and take bribes, which means that he disapproved of it strongly. In Islam, bribery is considered a major sin because it goes against the principles of justice and fairness. It also creates an unequal playing field for people in society, as those with more money can buy their way out of trouble or get ahead in life while those without money are left behind. This hadith teaches us to be honest and fair in our dealings with others, no matter what our financial situation may be. We should strive to treat everyone equally and not let money influence our decisions or actions.
