[24] The Character Trait Most Hated to The Messenger

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

In The Name of Allah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy.

Aa’ishah, may Allah be pleased with her, narrated:

“There was no trait more hated to Allah’s Messenger, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, than lying. A man would speak based on lies in the presence of the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, and he would not be content until he knew that he had repented”. [Sahih at-Tirmidhi 1973]

Abu Hurayrah, may Allah be pleased with him, narrated that Allah’s Messenger, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said:

“Whoever does not abandon false speech and acting on it, and behaving ignorantly, Allah has no need for him abandoning his food and drink”. [Al-Bukhari 6057]

Yunus Ibn Ubayd, may Allah have mercy upon him, said:

“Indeed, you see a man fasting a lot, abstaining from the forbidden matters and praying the night prayer, then he testifies to falsehood in the morning.” [Hilyah Al-Awliyaa 3/20]
