Совет на неделата: Лагите ги чуваат ангелите на милоста далеку

Пророкот (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) кажа: “When a person tells a lie, the bad smell that comes out of the lie keeps the angels one mile away.” [Тирмиди]

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, сепак, it is narrated:

Once a Sahabiah called her son in telling him that she wanted to give him something. Пророкот (ВИЛА) then asked her if she had in fact given anything to her son. She replied that she had given him a date. Пророкот (ВИЛА) 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, амин.
