The Ruling on Lying to Reconcile People
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
After this, a message reached the program from one of the female listeners. Your sister in Allah, Umm Hajar from Riyadh, has a case in which she says: Sometimes I tell my mother that my husband loves her very much and says good things about her, and so on, even if my husband did not say this. I do the same thing with my husband, and I intend nothing but to reconcile them, because they were in severe disagreement with each other. I also tell her that he buys me things or does good things for me, even if he did not do them, for the same purpose. Am I lying by doing this?
Answer:
There is no blame on you for that. This falls under the category of reconciliation, and there is no blame in it, provided that it does not harm anyone and only concerns the two of you. Yes.
The presenter : May Allah reward you with good.
