left the path of evil and became travellers of the path of righteousness due to the mercy of Allah.’^{^[1]}

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

Truth will benefit in the Hereafter

O devotees of the Holy Prophet! We learn that there are many blessings of speaking the truth. Truth is such a quality that does not only make a person successful in this world but those who speak the truth will be successful even in the Hereafter. The Holy Quran mentions this point very clearly. Hence:

It is mentioned in part 7, Surah Al-Ma’idah, Ayah 119:

هٰذَا یَوْمُ یَنْفَعُ الصّٰدِقِیْنَ صِدْقُهُمْؕ-لَهُمْ جَنّٰتٌ تَجْرِیْ مِنْ تَحْتِهَا الْاَنْهٰرُ خٰلِدِیْنَ فِیْهَاۤ اَبَدًاؕ-رَضِیَ اللّٰهُ عَنْهُمْ وَ رَضُوْا عَنْهُؕ-ذٰلِكَ الْفَوْزُ الْعَظِیْمُ(۱۱۹)

“This is the Day when the truthfulness of the truthful will benefit them. For them there are gardens beneath which rivers are flowing. They will reside therein forever. Allah is pleased with them, and they are pleased with Him. This is supreme success.”^{^[2]}

A summary of what the famous commentator of the Holy Quran, ‘Allamah Isma’eel Haqqi رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَـلَيْه wrote under this Ayah is as follows:

Truth will benefit the person speaking the truth on the Day of Judgement.

Lies spoken in the world and ostentation will not be beneficial whatsoever on the Day of Judgement. Rather, they will be a cause of entrapment.
