English translation

4997. It was narrated from Asmā' bint Abī Bakr that a woman said: "O Messenger of Allāh, I have a neighbor – meaning a co-wife –; is there any sin on me if I boast to her of something that my husband did not give me?" He said: "The one who boasts of something that he has not been given, is like the one who wears two garments of falsehood." (Ṣaḥīḥ)

Arabic text

4997 - حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتِ الْمُنْذِرِ، عَنْ أَسْمَاءَ بِنْتِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ، أَنَّ امْرَأَةً، قَالَتْ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، إِنَّ لِي جَارَةً - تَعْنِي ضَرَّةً - هَلْ عَلَيَّ جُنَاحٌ إِنْ تَشَبَّعْتُ لَهَا بِمَا لَمْ يُعْطِ زَوْجِي، قَالَ: «الْمُتَشَبِّعُ بِمَا لَمْ يُعْطَ كَلَابِسِ ثَوْبَيْ زُورٍ»
