:salam2:
I apologize for the randomness of the question that i am about to pose.
Is giving false information about your family members to a complete stranger considered lying? It is the month of Ramadhaan and i have really tried really hard to not utter anything that could be considered a lie and not even a white lie but when it comes to matters of family, as a defense mechanism I tend to blurt out information that are not remotely true before i am in conversation with a complete stranger?
Example ... i come out of the mosque and am greeted by a certain person who wants me to attend a certain program in the mosque itself but the problem is that he is a complete stranger to me. So he asks me questions about myself, like my name and what do I do ...fair enough ... then he goes personal asking where do i live and what does my family do for a living? Where is my brother and what is he doing , same question about my father and i cant help but lie because its private information. But after all said and done I feel really disgusted because he is a fellow muslim and i am not supposed to lie but then again he is a COMPLETE stranger and how can anyone disclose private information on the first go.
Again I apologize for the randomness.
