After the passing away of the Holy Prophet (s.

After the passing away of the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) the hypocrites earned nearness of the misled rulers and the callers toward hell through falsehood lying and false allegations. The misguided rulers also granted them governorships and imposed them on the masses and began to devour the world through their means. Masses are mostly with the kings and the world except those whom God protests.

2 - Those who give false witness God Almighty, with regard to the believers, says: And they who do not bear witness to what is false, and when they pass by what is vain, they pass by nobly. The Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) said: A testifier to falsehood is like one who worships idols. 3 - Those who swear falsely It is quoted from Imam Sadiq (a.s.): One who swears falsely, while knowing that it is a lie, has, verily declared a war against God.

Again it is reported from the Imam Sadiq (a.s.): A false swearing empties a city of its residents destroys townships. Also Imam Sadiq (a.s.) says: When a man says: God knows while he himself does not know and attributes falsehood to God this sin makes the Throne of God tremble due to anger. Also: One who swears falsely is given a ten-day respite. 4 - Those who break Promises In this very sense the Holy Quran says: O you who believe! Why do you may that which you do not do?

It is most hateful to Allah that you should say that which you do not do. The Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) said: One who believes in Allah and Hereafter should fulfill it when he gives promise. Now that we have studied verses and narrations regarding lying let us here plan for remedying this dangerous disease, which sprouts from hypocrisy, and we should know that a liar has to bear personal, collective economical and spiritual losses.

In the words of Amirul Mo-mineen (a.s.), Always tell the truth, because, God with the true, and refrain from lying as it drives one away from Faith. One who tells truth is on the garden seat of salvation and eminence and the liar stays on the brink of precipice of degradation and destruction. It is obvious that a liar is soon disgraced. It is narrated from the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.): A liar has no character.

Isa (a.s.) is reported to have said: One who tells more lies loses his prestige and value. Disgrace always remains in await for a liar, because, falsehood never remains hidden. It will surely come out once one day.
