hadith 937

Imam Reza (a.s) said: “We are a family who consider our promises as debts just as the Prophet of God (a.s) did.”

عن الرضا (عليه السلام) قال

إنا أهل بيت نرى ما وعدنا علينا دينا كما صنع رسول الله (صلى الله عليه وآله).

hadith 944

Ameer al-Momineen (a.s) said: “It is not right to lie, be it serious or not. It is not right to promise your kids something and not fulfill it. Telling lies will drag you into wicked acts. Wicked acts will take you into Hell. If you lie the people will say “He lied, He did wrong.” If you always lie, no room will be left in your heart for honesty, and you will be recorded as a real liar near God.”

قال أمير المؤمنين (عليه السلام): لا يصلح من الكذب جد ولا هزل، أن يعد أحدكم صبيه ثم لا يفي له، والكذب يهدي إلى الفجور، والفجور يهدي إلى النار، وما يزال أحدكم يكذب حتى يقال: كذب وفجر، وما يزال أحدكم يكذب حتى لا يبقى في قلبه موضع إبرة صدق فيسمى عند الله كذابا.
