LYING

1586

“The liar is not the one who reforms between people that he may deliver statements of good or say good.

She (Umm Kulthoom) added, ‘I did not hear him make it permissible except in three cases: He meant war, reforming between people, and the talk of a man to his wife and a wife to her husband.’"

Bukhari and Muslim with a chain up to Umm Kulthoom, may Allah be pleased with her, said that she heard the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, say this.

BEING SURE BEFORE SAYING OR REPORTING

Allah, the Exalted says:

“Do not follow what you do not know.” 17:36 Koran

“Whatever he utters, an observer is present.” 50:18 Koran
