Question:
May Allah reward you. It is mentioned in the hadith that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sahih Muslim 2607a What is the meaning of this hadith, how does lying lead to wickedness, and what is meant by wickedness in the hadith?
Answer:
Wickedness, by definition, is departing from the obedience of Allah (Mighty and Majestic). So the wicked person is the one who departs from the obedience of Allah (Mighty and Majestic). The hypocrites are all among those who depart from the obedience of Allah according to the extent of their departure, acting upon shirk (associating partners with Allah). But shirk is a departure from the obedience of Allah, whether it is a departure of disbelief, a departure of [unclear], or a departure of sin, according to the [unclear]. So lying leads to wickedness, meaning to departing from the obedience of Allah, and wickedness leads to the Fire. Indeed, the wicked are the companions of the Blazing Fire. This is what indicates the need to avoid lying, because it gradually leads a person until it expands for him in the Fire. Yes.
