حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مُرَّةَ، عَنْ أَبِي الْأَحْوَصِ، عَنْ عَبدِ اللهِ، قَالَ: " لَأَنْ أَحْلِفَ تِسْعًا أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قُتِلَ قَتْلًا، أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ أَحْلِفَ وَاحِدَةً أَنَّهُ لَمْ يُقْتَلْ، وَذَلِكَ بِأَنَّ اللهَ جَعَلَهُ نَبِيًّا، وَاتَّخَذَهُ شَهِيدًا " قَالَ الْأَعْمَشُ: فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لِإِبْرَاهِيمَ، فَقَالَ: " كَانُوا يَرَوْنَ أَنَّ الْيَهُودَ سَمُّوهُ وَأَبَا بَكْرٍ " (٣)، ،

It was narrated that Abul-Ahwas said:
‘Abdullah (رضي الله عنه) used to say: Lying is not appropriate, either in earnest or in jest - on one occasion 'Affan said: in earnest, and no man should make a promise to a child and not fulfil it. He said: Verily Muhammad (ﷺ) said to us: "A man will continue to speak the truth until he is recorded with Allah as a speaker of truth, and a man will continue to tell lies until he is recorded with Allah as a liar."
