حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ قَالَ أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ أَخْبَرَنَا عَنْ أَبِي الْأَحْوَصِ قَالَ كَانَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ يَقُولُ إِنَّ الْكَذِبَ لَا يَصْلُحُ مِنْهُ جِدٌّ وَلَا هَزْلٌ وَقَالَ عَفَّانُ مَرَّةً جِدٌّ وَلَا يَعِدُ الرَّجُلُ صَبِيًّا ثُمَّ لَا يُنْجِزُ لَهُ قَالَ وَإِنَّ مُحَمَّدًا قَالَ لَنَا لَا يَزَالُ الرَّجُلُ يَصْدُقُ حَتَّى يُكْتَبَ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ صِدِّيقًا وَلَا يَزَالُ الرَّجُلُ يَكْذِبُ حَتَّى يُكْتَبَ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ كَذَّابًا
مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 3896
It was narrated that Abul-Ahwas said: 'Abdullah (RA) used to say: Lying is not appropriate, either in earnest or in jest - on one occasion 'Affan said: in earnest, and no man should make a promise to a child and not fulfil it. He said: Verily Muhammad (PBUH) said to us: "A man will continue to speak the truth until he is recorded with Allah as a speaker of truth, and a man will continue to tell lies until he is recorded with Allah as a liar."
