ذِكْرُ أُنَاسِ اتُّصِفُوا بِالْكَذِبِMention of people who were described as liars
Hadith 9896
اُردوEn
عَنْهُ أَيْضًا عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ ((أَكْذَبُ النَّاسِ الصُّنَّاعُ))
Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Among the people, the greatest liar is the craftsman and skilled worker.
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … The professions of those who perform cupping, butchers, goldsmiths, craftsmen, dyers, and other skilled workers are permissible and valid. The reason for declaring them disliked is that the one who applies cupping (hijama) and the butcher have to remain involved in impure matters, and the majority of people in other professions and industries engage in deception and adulteration, and their conduct becomes like the proverbial elephant whose tusks are different for display and for eating.
