Mortgaging

3.685:
Narrated Anas:
No doubt, the Prophet mortgaged his armor for barley grams.
Once I took barley bread with some dissolved fat on it to the
Prophet and I heard him saying, "The household of Muhammad did
not possess except a Sa (of food grain, barley, etc.) for both
the morning and the evening meals although they were nine
houses."

Narrated Jabir bin `Abdullah: Allah's Apostle said, "Who would
kill Ka`b bin Al−Ashraf as he has harmed Allah and His Apostle
?" Muhammad bin Maslama (got up and) said, "I will kill him."
So, Muhammad bin Maslama went to Ka`b and said, "I want a loan
of one or two Wasqs of food grains." Ka`b said, "Mortgage your
women to me." Muhammad bin Maslama said, "How can we mortgage
our women, and you are the most handsome among the Arabs?" He
said, "Then mortgage your sons to me." Muhammad said, "How can
we mortgage our sons, as the people will abuse them for being
mortgaged for one or two Wasqs of food grains? It is shameful
for us. But we will mortgage our arms to you." So, Muhammad
bin Maslama promised him that he would come to him next time.
They (Muhammad bin Maslama and his companions came to him as
promised and murdered him. Then they went to the Prophet and
told him about it.

animal can be used for riding as long as it is fed and the
milk of the milch animal can be drunk according to what one
spend on it. The one who rides the animal or drinks its milk
should provide the expenditures."

defendant had to take an oath.
3.692:
Narrated Abu Wail: `Abdullah (bin Mas`ud) said, "Whoever took
a false oath in order to grab somebody's property will meet
Allah while Allah will be angry with him." Allah revealed the
following verse to confirm that:−−"Verily! Those who purchase
a small gain at the cost of Allah's covenant And their
oaths...a painful torment." (3.77) Al−Ash'ath bin Qais came to
us and asked as to what Abu `Abdur−Rahman (i.e. Ibn Mas`ud)
was telling you." We related the story to him. On that he
said, "He has told the truth. This verse was revealed about
me. I had some dispute with another man regarding a well and
we took the case before Allah's Apostle. Allah's Apostle said
(to me), "Produce two witnesses (to support your claim);
otherwise the defendant has the right to take an oath (to
refute your claim).' I said, 'The defendant would not mind to
take a false oath." Allah's Apostle then said, 'Whoever took a
false oath in order to grab someone else's property will meet
Allah, Allah will be angry with him.' Allah then revealed what
Confirmed it." Al−Ash'ath then recited the following
Verse:−−"Verily! Those who purchase a small gain at the cost
of Allah's covenant, And their oaths . . . (to) . . . they
shall have a painful torment!' (3.77) (See Hadith No. 546)
