Hadith 16980

حَدَّثَنَا عِصَامُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ ، وَأَبُو الْمُغِيرَةِ ، قَالَا : حَدَّثَنَا حَرِيزُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ الْوَاحِدِ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ النَّصْرِيَّ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ وَاثِلَةَ بْنَ الْأَسْقَعِ ، يَقُولُ : قَالَ نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " إِنَّ مِنْ أَعْظَمِ الْفِرَى أَنْ يَدَّعِى الرَّجُلُ إِلَى غَيْرِ أَبِيهِ ، أَوْ يُرِيَ عَيْنَيْهِ فِي الْمَنَامِ مَا لَمْ تَرَيَا ، أَوْ يَقُولَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَا لَمْ يَقُلْ "
It is narrated from Hazrat Wathilah (may Allah be pleased with him) that I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: The greatest slanders are three things: One is that a person slanders his own eyes and says, "I saw such and such in a dream," while he did not see it; the second is that a person slanders his parents and attributes himself to someone other than his father; and the third is that someone says he heard something from me, while he did not hear it from me.
