Hadith 6645
اُردوEn
وَعَنْهُ أَيْضًا عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ ثَلَاثَةٌ لَا يَنْظُرُ اللَّهُ يَعْنِي إِلَيْهِمْ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ الْإِمَامُ الْكَذَّابُ وَالشَّيْخُ الزَّانِي وَالْعَائِلُ الْمَزْهُوُّ
It is also narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: On the Day of Resurrection, Allah Almighty will not look at three types of people: a lying imam, an old adulterer, and an arrogant poor person.
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … Due to time, place, and personality, the nature of good and evil can differ. For example, good deeds performed in youth are regarded with greater value, and similarly, evil deeds committed in old age are viewed with intense dislike. This hadith mentions three such criminals: a leader or ruler who lies, an old man who commits adultery even after reaching old age, and a poor person who is arrogant despite poverty and hunger. Lying, adultery, and arrogance are sinful acts, but when these three individuals commit these acts, they are considered even more reprehensible, because the status, age, and apparent condition of these individuals demand otherwise.
