2611. It was narrated from 'Abdullâh bin 'Amr that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: "Whoever claims to belong to someone other than his father will not smell the fragrance of Paradise, even though its fragrance may be detected from a distance of five hundred years." (Sahih)

Arabic text

2611 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الصَّبَّاحِ قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْكَرِيمِ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَنِ ادَّعَى إِلَى غَيْرِ أَبِيهِ لَمْ يَرَحْ رِيحَ الْجَنَّةِ، وَإِنَّ رِيحَهَا لَيُوجَدُ مِنْ مَسِيرَةِ خَمْسِمِائَةِ عَامٍ» بَابُ مَنْ نَفَى رَجُلًا مِنْ قَبِيلَتِهِ

Commentary

It is unlawful to claim to belong to someone other than one's own father. 'Will not smell the fragrance of Paradise,' means that he will not enter Paradise and he will remain far away from it. This means he will go to Hell. Allâh may forgive him, as He is All-Forgiving.
