أَخْبَرَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ عَنْ إِدْرِيسَ الْأَوْدِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَقَ عَنْ أَبِي الْأَحْوَصِ أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ يَرْفَعُ الْحَدِيثَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ

إِنَّ شَرَّ الرَّوَايَا رَوَايَا الْكَذِبِ وَلَا يَصْلُحُ مِنَ الْكَذِبِ جِدٌّ وَلَا هَزْلٌ وَلَا يَعِدُ الرَّجُلُ ابْنَهُ ثُمَّ لَا يُنْجِزُ لَهُ إِنَّ الصِّدْقَ يَهْدِي إِلَى الْبِرِّ وَإِنَّ الْبِرَّ يَهْدِي إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ وَإِنَّ الْكَذِبَ يَهْدِي إِلَى الْفُجُورِ وَإِنَّ الْفُجُورَ يَهْدِي إِلَى النَّارِ وَإِنَّهُ يُقَالُ لِلصَّادِقِ صَدَقَ وَبَرَّ وَيُقَالُ لِلْكَاذِبِ كَذَبَ وَفَجَرَ وَإِنَّ الرَّجُلَ لَيَصْدُقُ حَتَّى يُكْتَبَ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ صِدِّيقًا وَيَكْذِبُ حَتَّى يُكْتَبَ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ كَذَّابًا

✧ Indeed, the worst of riding beasts are the riding beasts of falsehood. Neither seriousness nor jest is acceptable in lying, nor should a man promise his son something and then not fulfill it. Verily, truthfulness leads to righteousness, and righteousness leads to Paradise. Verily, lying leads to wickedness, and wickedness leads to the Fire. It is said of the truthful one: 'He spoke the truth and acted righteously,' and it is said of the liar: 'He lied and acted wickedly.' A man continues to speak the truth until he is recorded with Allah as a veracious one (ṣiddīq), and he continues to lie until he is recorded with Allah as a liar.
