Hadith 2372

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ الْعُصْفُرِيُّ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ حَبِيبِ بْنِ النُّعْمَانِ الْأَسَدِيِّ ، عَنْ خُرَيْمِ بْنِ فَاتِكٍ الْأَسَدِيِّ ، قَالَ : صَلَّى النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الصُّبْحَ فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ قَامَ قَائِمًا ، فَقَالَ : " عُدِلَتْ شَهَادَةُ الزُّورِ بِالْإِشْرَاكِ بِاللَّهِ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ ثُمَّ تَلَا هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ وَاجْتَنِبُوا قَوْلَ الزُّورِ { 30 } حُنَفَاءَ لِلَّهِ غَيْرَ مُشْرِكِينَ بِهِ سورة الحج آية 30-31 " .
´It was narrated that Khuraim bin Fatik Al-Asadi said that :` the Prophet(ﷺ) prayed the Morning prayer, and when he had finished, he stood up and said: “Bearing false witness is equivalent to associating others with Allah,” three times. Then he recited this Verse: “And shun lying speech (false statements), Hunafa' Lillah (i.e., worshiping none but Allah), not associating partners (in worship) to Him.”
