The Sin of Bribery

SUMMARY: Taking and offering bribes is a sin in the eyes of Allah.

It was narrated from 'Abdullah bin 'Amr that the Messenger of Allah said: "The curse of Allah is upon the one who offers a bribe and the one who takes it".
حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ، عَنْ خَالِهِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏ "‏ لَعْنَةُ اللَّهِ عَلَى الرَّاشِي وَالْمُرْتَشِي

QUICK LESSONS:
Do not take nor offer bribes. Make decisions based on what is right and just instead of being influenced by money or other rewards.

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith from the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) warns us against taking or offering bribes. A bribe is when someone offers money or something else of value to another person in exchange for a favor or to influence their decision. The Prophet Muhammad said that anyone who takes or offers a bribe will be cursed by Allah. This means that Allah will not be pleased with them and they may face punishment for their actions. We should always strive to make decisions based on what is right and just rather than being influenced by money or other rewards.
