Hadith on Deceit: Flag to humiliate treacherous on Judgment Day

Abu Sa’id al-Khudri reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Every treacherous person will have a banner raised over him on the Day of Resurrection according to the measure of his betrayal. Surely, there is no greater betrayal than that committed by a ruler over the commoners.
