이번 주의 팁: 거짓말은 자비의 천사를 멀리합니다

예언자 (하나님께서 당신을 축복하시고 평화를 주시기를 빕니다) 말했다: “When a person tells a lie, the bad smell that comes out of the lie keeps the angels one mile away.” [티르미디]

How often do we lie to others in the hope of absolving ourselves of something we have done wrong or to get them people to agree to something? Lying to children in particular is something many parents do for a variety of different reasons, 하지만, it is narrated:

Once a Sahabiah called her son in telling him that she wanted to give him something. 예언자 (보았다) then asked her if she had in fact given anything to her son. She replied that she had given him a date. 예언자 (보았다) told her that if she had not given him anything she would have been recorded as lying to her child.

Lying weakens the imaan and prevents the angels of mercy from coming towards us to protect us. We should at all times be mindful that Allah SWT is ever-watchful over what we do and should never deliberately or intentionally lie, lest we become noted as liars in the akhirah. May Allah SWT protect us all, 아멘.
