wa alaykum salam
I'm not giving fatwa... i am giving my own type of naseeha insha'allah... it's not up to me whether anyone takes it at all
Of course Allah knows best.
Now think though... going a bit extreme... if i said, ok let's play a game the conditions are that you have to backbite a person everytime you get a wrong answer... does it make the backbiting right?? Even though and ESPECIALLY since you know you're backbiting a person, does it make something which is Haraam ... suddenly ok?
Think this way, if you can't do anything else that is haraam and label it as halaal and make it seem ok, why does it seem for lying it can be let off so easily?
I cannot narrate the Hadith directly but did the Prophet
not say
"The habitual lier is in the Hellfire" ?? :astag: May Allah save us from that!!
well... depends on how you see it right? when everyone knows it's wrong... does that not make it MORE of a lie??? Remember, in Islaam there are no such things as white lies...
As you say dear sister, bear these in mind as well:
The Prophet said,
“Woe on anyone who speaks to entertain the people by lying, woe on him, woe on him…” (Abu Dawud, At-Tirmidhi, and An-Nasa’i).
The Prophet also said, “One is not considered a true believer till he abandons lying for fun and arguing even if he was telling the truth” (Ahmad and At-Tabarani)
Allahu Alem... ok please continue if you so wish. I am worse than all of you I am sure, and thus have no right to judge anything of what you all do. Truly... may Allah forgive me as I make mistakes left and right... and May He guide us all to the truth and make us of those who are the Siddiqeen. Ameen.
Here is your next question insha'allah, I am losing by not lying to the last but go for it:
What does Islam mean?
Points -
- Will you knowingly lie now?
- If not? Why? It's hypocritical to answer one type of question and deny another in this all inclusive game.
- If something does not contain Islam where is the barakah?
Please I implore you all to answer. I think I'm being brash... and wallahi... please bear no hard feelings at me for this, because my intention is not to offend or to get anyone sad!!! i'm just trying to bring about an understanding.
barkallahu feek. You may Allah skip my question if you wish.... it's 2:05 AM to late to be dealing with such matters ....
Subhaanaka Allaahumma wa bihamdika, ash-hadu allaa ilaaha illaa Anta, astaghfiruka wa atoobu ilayka
