Is the Hadith: "Whoever harms a Dhimmi has harmed me, and whoever harms me, I will be his adversary on the Day of Resurrection" authentic?
The mentioned was narrated with multiple wordings, some of which are fabricated (mawdu‘) and some are weak (da‘if). Among them are: "Whoever harms a dhimmi has harmed me," and "Whoever harms a dhimmi, I am his adversary, and whoever I am his adversary, I will dispute with him on the Day of Resurrection." Al-Albani graded this hadith as weak. However, there are authentic hadiths with a similar meaning, such as: "Beware, if anyone wrongs a Mu‘ahid (person who has a covenant with Muslims), or diminishes his right, or burdens him beyond his capacity, or takes anything from him without his consent, then I shall be his adversary on the Day of Judgment." Its chain of narration is acceptable.
