Sunan ad-Darimi — Hadith #55533

Othman bin Muhammad told us, Jarir told us, on the authority of Idris Al-Awdi, on the authority of Abu Ishaq, on the authority of Abu Al-Ahwas: that Abdullah raises The hadith to the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: “The worst of narrations is narrations of lies, and neither seriousness nor jest is appropriate for lying. A man makes a promise to his son and then does not fulfill it: Indeed, honesty leads to righteousness, and righteousness leads to Paradise, and lying leads to immorality. And immorality leads to Hell, and it is said to the truthful one: He is truthful and righteous, and it is said to the liar: He lied and is immoral. And the man He will tell the truth until he is recorded as a truthful with God, and he will lie until he is recorded as a liar with God.” And he said: “Shall I inform you what a bite is?” “And the biting is the gossip that causes corruption between people.”
