The Ruling on One Who Concealed True Evidence

Question :

A man works for another person. The owner of the establishment rejected the work of the employee, with the intention of depriving him of his payment. So the employee submitted a complaint to those in authority and he was asked to provide witnesses for his work. But those who knew of his work were either neighbors of the owner of the establishment or his employees, and all of them are friendly to him, so they refused to testify. What is the ruling on those people who concealed true evidence?

Answer:

As for those who concealed evidence of the truth, whether those in the question about whom he is asking, or others, all those who conceal evidence of which they are aware, Allah says about them:
"And conceal not the evidence, for he who hides it, surely, his heart is sinful."

Sin of the heart leads to deviation of the body, according to the words of the Prophet ﷺ:
"Verily, in the body there is a piece of flesh; if it is sound, the whole body is sound, and if it is corrupt the whole body is corrupt, and hearken it is the heart."
