Hadith 9897
عَنْ أَسْمَاءَ بِنْتِ يَزِيدَ أَنَّهَا سَمِعَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَخْطُبُ يَقُولُ ((يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا مَا يَحْمِلُكُمْ عَلَى أَنْ تَتَابَعُوا فِي الْكَذِبِ كَمَا يَتَتَابَعُ الْفَرَاشُ فِي النَّارِ كُلُّ الْكَذِبِ يُكْتَبُ عَلَى ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلَّا ثَلَاثَ خِصَالٍ رَجُلٌ كَذَبَ عَلَى امْرَأَتِهِ لِيُرْضِيَهَا أَوْ رَجُلٌ كَذَبَ فِي خَدِيعَةِ حَرْبٍ أَوْ رَجُلٌ كَذَبَ بَيْنَ امْرَأَيْنِ مُسْلِمَيْنِ لِيُصْلِحَ بَيْنَهُمَا))
It is narrated from Sayyida Asma bint Yazid (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) addressed and said: O believers! What is it that constantly incites you to lie continuously, just as moths begin to fall into the fire continuously? Every lie of the son of Adam is recorded against him, except for three matters: (1) A husband who lies to his wife in order to please her, (2) A man who lies in war to deceive the enemy, and (3) A man who lies to reconcile between two Muslims.
Hadith 9898
عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ أَنَّ أُمَّهُ أُمَّ كُلْثُومٍ بِنْتَ عُقْبَةَ أَخْبَرَتْهُ أَنَّهَا سَمِعَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ ((لَيْسَ الْكَذَّابُ الَّذِي يُصْلِحُ بَيْنَ النَّاسِ فَيَنْمِي خَيْرًا أَوْ يَقُولُ خَيْرًا)) وَقَالَتْ لَمْ أَسْمَعْهُ يُرَخِّصُ فِي شَيْءٍ مِمَّا يَقُولُ النَّاسُ إِلَّا فِي ثَلَاثٍ فِي الْحَرْبِ وَالْإِصْلَاحِ بَيْنَ النَّاسِ وَحَدِيثِ الرَّجُلِ امْرَأَتَهُ وَحَدِيثِ الْمَرْأَةِ زَوْجَهَا وَكَانَتْ أُمُّ كُلْثُومِ بِنْتُ عُقْبَةَ مِنَ الْمُهَاجِرَاتِ اللَّاتِي بَايَعْنَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ
Narrated from Sayyida Umm Kulthum bint Uqbah (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: He is not a liar who reconciles between people and conveys good or speaks well. Sayyida Umm Kulthum (may Allah be pleased with her) says: I did not hear the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) grant permission to lie in speech to people except in three matters: in war, when reconciling between people, and when a husband speaks to his wife and a wife speaks to her husband. Sayyida Umm Kulthum (may Allah be pleased with her) was among those emigrant women who pledged allegiance to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him).
