Narrated from Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that a woman came to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah! I have a husband and I also have a co-wife. I express about my husband that he has given me such and such thing, he has brought me such and such cloth. Will this be considered a lie? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever is not given something, but still expresses as if it has been given to them, is like a person who has put on two garments of falsehood.

Brief Explanation
Benefits: … What is meant by "wearing two garments of falsehood" is that it is as if falsehood has covered the entire body of this person; he is expressing, regarding himself, something that does not belong to him.
