Spreading Mischief Through THE ART OF LYING


Allaah's Messenger sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam said:
"Indeed truthfulness leads to piety and obedience and piety and obedience lead to Paradise. And a person continues to be truthful until he is recorded with Allaah as a truthful person. And indeed lying leads to wickedness and wickedness lead to the Fire. And a person continues to lie until he is recorded with Allaah as a liar." [Related by al-Bukhaaree (3/30) and Muslim (no.2607), from Ibn Mas'oodradiallaabu 'anhu.]
DESTROYING COMPREHENSIVE BROTHERHOOD
al-Albaanee - hafidhahullaah - said in Fiqhul-Waaqi' (pp.13-14), whilst speaking about certain trials that have afflicted the Muslims, destroying their unity, weakening their resolve and splitting their ranks: "Part of this trial has struck at the root of the hearts of a great number of daa'ees (callers to Islaam) and students of knowledge, so that they have - regretfully - become divided between themselves. Some of them speaking ill of others, and the others criticising the remainder and refuting them. These rebuttals on their own, or these criticisms alone will neither harm the one refuting, nor the one refuted, since - with the people of justice - the truth is recognised by its light and its proofs, which is not the case with the people of blind-sectarianism and deviation. However, what will harm them is speech without knowledge, talking without restraint and speaking falsely about the servants of Allaah!"
