SAYINGS OF OUR PROPHET (saas)
ON AVOIDING LIES
"On the Resurrection Day, the worst men in Allah's sight will
be the liars, the proud, and those who entertained hatred in the
mind of their friends." 17
"You will see on the Resurrection Day the worst man near
Allah with two faces." 18
"If you narrate to your brother a narration that he believes for
you but that you do not believe for him, it will be a breach of
trust." 19
"A man is enrolled near Allah as a liar if he is accustomed to
false speaking and false discussions." 20
"I advise you to fear Allah, to speak the truth, to fulfill a trust,
to fulfill a promise, to greet each other with "peace" [salam],
and to be humble." 21
"If any man takes an oath in the name of Allah and admits
therein any falsehood, even though it be as minute as a fly's
wing, he will find a spot remaining in his soul up to the Day of
Resurrection." 22
"O Allah, purify my heart from hypocrisy, my private parts
from fornication, and my tongue from falsehood." 23
"He who narrates a dream that he has not seen will be put to
trouble." 24
"The worst of lies is to pretend to have seen something that one
has not seen." 25
