حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ رَافِعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، عَنْ هَمَّامٍ، عَنْ فَرْقَدٍ السَّبَخِيِّ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الشِّخِّيرِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ " أَكْذَبُ النَّاسِ الصَّبَّاغُونَ وَالصَّوَّاغُونَ " .
Abu Hurairah Narrated from:
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "The most dishonest of people are the dyers and the goldsmiths. "[1]
[1] These two occupations are characterized as dishonest because they often tell people that their goods will be ready at a certain time then break that promise. The words translated as 'dyers and goldsmiths' may also refer to those who tell lies and invent fabrications.
