“Indeed successful are the
Believers, those who in their prayer
have Khushoo‟ (fear of Allah) and
those who refrain from vain
talk.” [Soorah Mumineen : 1-3]

April 1

Lying is an evil characteristic
All religions and systems of ethics
warn against lying
man's innate nature (fitrah) agrees
that it is wrong

But On April 1,
Google becomes Foogle

“It is only those who believe not in
the Ayaat
(proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, sig
ns, revelations, etc.) of Allah, who
fabricate falsehood, and it is they
who are liars.”
[16:105]
Lying is PROHIBITED

Signs of the hypocrite
when he speaks, he lies
when he makes a promise, he breaks it
when he is entrusted with
something, he betrays that trust.”
when he quarrels, he deviates from
the truth by speaking falsely

“Say: „Verily, those who invent a lie
against Allah will never be
successful‟”
[Surah Yunus 69]
“Do not tell lies about me. Whoever
tells lies about me, let him enter the
Fire.” (Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 106)
Messenger ( ) Said:

“And do not say that of
which you have no
knowledge.”
(17:36)

Allah will not speak/ look on the
Day of Resurrection and they will have
a painful torment.” The Messenger of
Allah ( ) repeated this three
times. Abu Dharr said: “May they be
doomed and lost, who are they, O
Messenger of Allah?.... They are

One who lets his garment hang below his
ankles
One who reminds others of his favours
One who disposes of his goods by swearing a
false oath (Narrated by Muslim, 106)

“The two parties involved in a transaction
have the option [of cancelling it] until they
part. If they are honest and
truthful, their transaction will be
blessed for them and if they conceal
something and tell lies, the blessing of
their transaction will be wiped out.”
(al- Bukhaari, 1973; Muslim, 532)

„It is sufficient lying for a man to speak
of everything that he hears.‟
(Muslim, 5)

but the truth.”

“Whoever says to a child, „Come here and
take this,‟ then does not give him
something, this is counted as a
lie.”

the people laugh and tells lies, woe
to him, woe to him.” (al-Tirmidhi 235)

“So He punished them by putting
hypocrisy into their hearts till the Day
whereon they shall meet Him, because they
broke that (covenant with Allaah)
which they had promised to Him and
because they used to tell
lies.
[al-Tawbah 9:77]

“Truthfulness is righteousness, and
righteousness leads to Paradise. A
person will continue to tell the truth
until he is written with Allah as one
who tells the truth. Lying is
evildoing, and evildoing leads to Hell.
A person will keep on telling lies until
he is written as a liar.”
(al-Bukhaari, 5743; Muslim, 2607)

Prophet ( ) explained about one of his
dreams in which he saw some people of hell
„As for the man you came across, the sides of
whose mouth, nostrils and eyes were being
torn off from front to back, he is the symbol
of the man who goes out of his house in the
morning and tells so many lies that it
spreads all over the world.‟ ” (al-Bukhaari, 5745)

Lying is permissible in three cases:
War
Reconciling between two disputing parties
A husband lying to his wife or vice versa
for the sake of love and harmony.
(al-Tirmidhi, 1939)

“Whoever believes in God and the Last
Day should speak a good word
or remain silent. And whoever
believes in God and the Last Day should
show hospitality to his
neighbor. And whoever believes in God
and the Last Day should show
hospitality to his guest.”Saheeh Al-Bukhari, Saheeh Muslim

“O you who believe! Fear God and speak
a word that is right. He will set right
for you your deeds and forgive you
your sins. And whoever obeys God and
His Messenger has certainly attained a
great achievement.” (33:70-71)

Allah's Messenger ( ) said, “The
worst lie is that a person claims to
have seen a dream which he
has not seen."

“Indeed there is a piece of flesh in your
body that, if it be sound, then the
whole body will be sound and if
it be corrupt then the whole body will
be corrupt. Indeed it is the heart.”
- Sahih al-Bukhari

“Not a word is said except
that there is a watcher by
him ready to record it.”
– [50:18]

Imaam ash-Shafiee - rahimahullah - said.
“If you wish to speak then it is
upon you to think before you
speak. If you think there is good
in it then speak and if not then do
not speak.”

....And Allah has hated for you:
(1) Qil and Qal (sinful and useless
talk, like backbiting or that one
talks too much about others),
(2) To ask too many questions (in
disputed religious matters, etc.)...
Sahih al-Bukhari [3:591]

“Whoever guards what is between
his two jaws and two legs. I shall
guarantee him
paradise.”
- Saheeh al-Bukhari (8/481)

Aadam is cursed, except for the
enjoining good and forbidding the
evil or for the remembrance of
Allah.”

will not be upright until his
heart is upright and his heart
will not be upright until his
tongue is upright.”
Musnad Imaam Ahmad

Aadam are from the tongue.”
- At-Tabaraanee (3/87/1-2)

Some people asked Allah's Messenger
)Whose Islam is the best? i.e.
(Who is a very good Muslim)?"
He replied, "One who avoids harming
the Muslims with his tongue and
hands."
