"عَنِ عبد الله بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ: أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ: أَلا وَإيَّاكُمْ وَرُؤْيَا الْكَذِبِ، فَإِنَّ الكَذِبَ لا يَصْلُحُ بِالجَدِّ وَلا بِالْهَزْلِ، وَلا يَعِد الرَّجُلُ صَبِيَّهُ مَا لَا يَفِى لَهُ بِهِ، أَلَا إِنَّ الْكَذِبَ يَهْدِى إِلى الْفُجُورِ، وَالْفُجُور إِلى النَّارِ، وَالصَّدْق إِلَى الْبِرِّ، وَالْبِر يهدى إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ، وَإِنَّهُ يُقَالُ لِلصَّادِقِ، صَدَقَ وَبَرَّ، وَيُقَالُ لِلْكَاذِبِ، كَذَبَ وَفَجَرَ، أَلا إِنَّ الْعَبْدَ يَكْذِبُ حَتَّى يُكْتَبَ عِنْدَ اللهِ كَذَّابًا، وَيَصْدُقُ حَتَّى يُكْتَبَ عِنْدَ اللهِ صَادِقًا".

"From Abdullah ibn Mas'ud: That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Beware of the dream of falsehood, for lying is not proper in earnest or in jest. A man should not promise his child something he will not fulfil for him. Indeed lying leads to wickedness, and wickedness leads to the Fire, while truthfulness leads to righteousness, and righteousness leads to Paradise. It is said of the truthful one: He spoke the truth and was righteous, and it is said of the liar: He lied and was wicked. Indeed a servant keeps lying until he is recorded with Allah as a great liar, and keeps speaking the truth until he is recorded with Allah as truthful."
