حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سِنَانٍ الْبَاهِلِيُّ , وَكَانَ يَنْزِلُ الْعَوَقَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا نَافِعُ بْنُ عُمَرَ ، عَنْ بِشْرِ بْنِ عَاصِمٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، قال أبو داود : هُوَ ابْنُ عَمْرٍو ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ يُبْغِضُ الْبَلِيغَ مِنَ الرِّجَالِ الَّذِي يَتَخَلَّلُ بِلِسَانِهِ تَخَلُّلَ الْبَاقِرَةِ بِلِسَانِهَا " .
Narrated Abdullah ibn Amr ibn al-As: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Allah, the Exalted, hates the eloquent one among men who moves his tongue round (among his teeth), as cattle do.

Benefits and Issues:
Eloquence and rhetorical skill are excellent qualities among people of knowledge and virtue; however, affectation, artificiality, and a manner of roaring are in no way commendable, either ethically or legally, especially when statements contrary to reality are fabricated.

Explanation:
1:
Just as a cow wraps fodder with its tongue and makes it its food, in the same way, a glib-tongued person keeps wrapping and twisting words as he continues to speak.
This situation especially occurs in the context of false statements.
Such eloquence and fluency is undesirable.
