نیکیوں میں دل لگے ہر دم بنا                   عاملِ سُنَّت اے نانائے حُسین!

جُھوٹ سے بُغض و حَسد سے ہم بچیں     کیجئے رحمت اے نانائے حُسین!

Epidemic to hollow Iman

Dear Islamic brothers! Ponder seriously! How the Quran condemns the liars and lying repeatedly and referring it to the hollowing of Iman and it also damages the inner-selves of liars; lying is such a devastating epidemic which keeps hollowing, undermining and crippling Iman as well as falling prey to this epidemic is also very unique as each time while lying the liar has the same thought ‘what big loss can it cause’ even though this evil brings loss in society and the liar is recorded by Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ as a ‘Kazzaab’ and enters into Hell.

Blessed Ahadees on Lying

Let’s listen to three blessed sayings of the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم:

1.         Speaking the truth is a virtue and virtue leads to Jannah and lying is a sin, leading to Hell. (Sahih Muslim, pp. 1405, Hadees 2607)

2.         Undoubtedly, truthfulness leads to righteousness, and righteousness leads to Jannah and undoubtedly, the person who continues speaking the truth until he becomes a truthful person. Falsehood leads to sin and sin leads to Hell, and a man may continue speaking lies until he is recorded as a ‘Kazzaab’ (great liar) before Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ.

(Sahih Bukhari, vol. 4, pp. 125, Raqm 6094)

3.         A person came to the blessed court of the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم and humbly asked: ‘O Beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم! What is that action which leads to Hell?’ The Noblest Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم replied: ‘When a bondsman speaks a lie, he commits a sin and when he commits a sin he shows ingratitude and when he shows ingratitude he enters Hell.’ (Al-Musnad Imam Ahmad Bin Hanbal, vol. 2, pp. 589, Raqm 6652)
