Importance and rewards of being truthful

Be amongst the Truthful!

Let’s pause to remind ourselves as well as our family and friends that as Muslims we are instructed to always be TRUTHFUL because TRUTH leads to RIGHTEOUSNESS. The prophet (S. A. W. S.) said, "Truthfulness leads to Al-Birr (righteousness) and Al-Birr (righteousness) leads to Paradise. And a man keeps on telling the truth until he becomes a truthful person. Falsehood leads to Al-Fujûr (i.e. wickedness & evil-doing), and Al-Fujûr leads to the (Hell) Fire, and a man keeps on telling lies until he is written as a liar before Allâh." (Sahih Al-Bukhâri, Vol.8, Hadîth No.116)." —> Remember, we take pride in Islam because it’s the religion of truth. As Muslims we can’t be lying and claim to represent the religion of TRUTH all at the same time! In all our affairs in life, therefore, let’s do what we can to be counted as TRUTHFUL and not LIARS in front of Allah because that will be a BIG loss! An important message that we should share with others as well.
