Sahih al-Bukhari 6652 (Book 83, Hadith 31) #6398
Punishment for Unbelief and Disrespect

SUMMARY: Whoever swears by a religion other than Islam, commits suicide, curses a believer or accuses them of disbelief will be punished in the afterlife.

Narrated Thabit bin Ad-Dahhak: The Prophet said, "Whoever swears by a religion other than Islam, is, as he says; and whoever commits suicide with something, will be punished with the same thing in the (Hell) Fire; and cursing a believer is like murdering him; and whoever accuses a believer of disbelief, then it is as if he had killed him".
حَدَّثَنَا مُعَلَّى بْنُ أَسَدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا وُهَيْبٌ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ أَبِي قِلاَبَةَ، عَنْ ثَابِتِ بْنِ الضَّحَّاكِ، قَالَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ‏ "‏ مَنْ حَلَفَ بِغَيْرِ مِلَّةِ الإِسْلاَمِ فَهْوَ كَمَا قَالَ ـ قَالَ ـ وَمَنْ قَتَلَ نَفْسَهُ بِشَىْءٍ عُذِّبَ بِهِ فِي نَارِ جَهَنَّمَ، وَلَعْنُ الْمُؤْمِنِ كَقَتْلِهِ، وَمَنْ رَمَى مُؤْمِنًا بِكُفْرٍ فَهْوَ كَقَتْلِهِ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the consequences of swearing by a religion other than Islam, committing suicide, cursing a believer or accusing them of disbelief. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said that whoever does any of these things will be punished in the afterlife. He compared cursing someone to murdering them and accused someone of disbelief as if they had killed them. This teaches us that we should respect all religions and not insult anyone's beliefs or accuse anyone falsely. We should also not take our own lives as it is considered an act of disobedience to God and will result in punishment in the hereafter.
