3599. It was narrated that Khuraim bin Fāṭik said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ prayed Subh (Fajr) and when he had finished, he stood up and said: 'False Testimony has been made equivalent to associating partners with Allāh,' three times. Then he recited: So shun the abomination (worshipping) of idol, and shun lying speech (false statements) Hunafā' Lillāh (worshipping none but Allāh), not associating partners (in worship) unto Him."[1]

Arabic text

3599 - حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى بْنُ مُوسَى الْبَلْخِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ، حَدَّثَنِي سُفْيَانُ يَعْنِي الْعُصْفُرِيَّ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ حَبِيبِ بْنِ النُّعْمَانِ الْأَسَدِيِّ، عَنْ خُرَيْمِ بْنِ فَاتِكٍ، قَالَ : صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَلَاةَ الصُّبْحِ، فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ قَامَ قَائِمًا، فَقَالَ: «عُدِلَتْ شَهَادَةُ الزُّورِ بِالْإِشْرَاكِ بِاللَّهِ» ثَلَاثَ مِرَارٍ، ثُمَّ قَرَأَ {فَاجْتَنِبُوا الرِّجْسَ مِنَ الأَوْثَانِ وَاجْتَنِبُوا قَوْلَ الزُّورِ حُنَفَاءَ لِلَّهِ غَيْرَ مُشْرِكِينَ بِهِ} [الحج: 31]

Commentary

It is proven by other Sahih narrations, that giving false testimony is considered a mortal sin. (Sahih Al-Bukhārī no. 2653.)
