"إِنَّ الْكَذِبَ لا يَصْلُحُ منْه جِدٌّ، وَلا هَزْلٌ، وَلَا أَنْ يعِدَ الرَّجلُ ابْنَه ثُمَّ لا يُنْجِزُ لَهُ، إِنَّ الصَّدْقَ يَهْدى إِلى الْجَنَّة، وَإنَّ الْكَذبَ يهْدى إِلى الْفُجورِ، وَإنَّ الْفُجُورَ يهْدِى إِلى النَّار، إِنَّهُ يُقَالُ للصَّادِق: صَدَق، وَبَرَّ، ويُقَاَلُ للكَاذِب كذبَ وَفَجَر، وَإِنَّ الرجل لَيَصْدُقُ حَتَّى يُكْتَبَ عِنْد اللهِ صِدِّيقًا، ويَكْذِبُ حتَّى يُكْتَبَ عِنْد اللهِ كَذَّابًا ".

"Indeed, lying is not fitting in earnest or in jest, nor that a man promise his son and then does not fulfill it for him. Indeed, truthfulness guides to Paradise, and indeed lying guides to wickedness, and indeed wickedness guides to the Fire. It is said to the truthful one: 'You spoke truly and did good,' and it is said to the liar: 'You lied and transgressed.' Indeed, a man keeps speaking the truth until he is recorded with Allah as a siddiq, and he keeps lying until he is recorded with Allah as a liar."
