TELLING THE TRUTH VERSUS LYING

55

“Truth guides to virtue and virtue guides to Paradise. A person who continuously tells the truth is called truthful in the Sight of Allah. Lying leads to vice and vice leads to the Fire; when someone lies continuously in the Sight of Allah that person is called a liar."

Bukhari and Muslim with a chain up to Abdullah son of Mas'ud who related the Messenger of Allah said this.
