Chapter: "Chapter: The Two Who Abuse Each Other Are Two Devils Arguing and Lying to One Another" Explanation of the Hadith of 'Iyadh ibn Hammar (may Allah be pleased with him), who said

They entered into a battle of abuse and cursing with no end. This type of abuse is what the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) intended in this hadith with his saying: , meaning: When the aggressor does not stop at responding to the aggression with the equivalent, but rather exaggerates in his response, the aggressor returns with an increase in his response, the one who was wronged increases in his response, and so on. These two who abuse each other, as he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: , meaning: Arguing is known, arguing with falsehood, and lying to one another: Each of them lies to the other.
