´It was narrated that Abu Hurairah said:` "The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: 'Whoever attributes to me something that I have not said, let him take his place in Hell."

Hadith Commentary: Benefits and Issues:
There is always the possibility of error or forgetfulness when narrating hadith at any time. Therefore, a person who does not exercise complete caution and prudence is, in effect, attributing a false statement to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam deliberately. However, if a person narrates these traditions with full prudence and caution, only relating those which he remembers completely and is certain about, then there is no risk of a minor mistake, because he has devoted himself to this task, or he narrates while keeping the book in front of him. And «فَلْيَتَبَوَّأْ» is in the imperative form, but it carries the meaning of a statement: "that his abode is Hell." Or it is a supplication: "that Allah, the Exalted, make his abode Hell."
