حَدَّثَنَا حَيْوَةُ بْنُ شُرَيْحٍ الْحَضْرَمِيُّ إِمَامُ مَسْجِدِ حِمْصَ ، حَدَّثَنَا بَقِيَّةُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ ، عَنْ ضُبَارَةَ بْنِ مَالِكٍ الْحَضْرَمِيِّ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ نُفَيْرٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ بْنِ أَسِيدٍ الْحَضْرَمِيِّ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، يَقُولُ : " كَبُرَتْ خِيَانَةً أَنْ تُحَدِّثَ أَخَاكَ حَدِيثًا هُوَ لَكَ بِهِ مُصَدِّقٌ ، وَأَنْتَ لَهُ بِهِ كَاذِبٌ " .
Narrated Sufyan ibn Asid al-Hadrami: I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: It is great treachery that you should tell your brother something and have him believe you when you are lying.
Brief Explanation
1؎: Ta'reez or tawriyah refers to the use of such a word that has an apparent meaning, while the speaker intends another meaning contrary to the apparent one, which the word can also bear. This is, in a way, to put the listener into deception. For this reason, unless there is a Shari' (Islamic legal) benefit or such a necessity that there is no other alternative except this, doing so is not permissible.
Explanation & Benefits
Shaykh Umar Farooq Saeedi
Benefits and Issues:
This narration is weak, but from other authentic ahadith it is known that deceiving a Muslim brother is a very grave and heinous sin.
It is stated in Sahih Muslim: (al-yamin ‘ala niyyati al-mustahlif).
In an oath, the meaning that will be considered valid is that which is intended by the one who is making another swear, not by the one taking the oath.
