حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الدِّمَشْقِيُّ وَهَارُونُ بْنُ إِسْحَقَ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي فُدَيْکٍ عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ وَرْدَانَ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِکٍ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَنْ تَرَکَ الْکَذِبَ وَهُوَ بَاطِلٌ بُنِيَ لَهُ قَصْرٌ فِي رَبَضِ الْجَنَّةِ وَمَنْ تَرَکَ الْمِرَائَ وَهُوَ مُحِقٌّ بُنِيَ لَهُ فِي وَسَطِهَا وَمَنْ حَسَّنَ خُلُقَةُ بُنِيَ لَهُ فِي أَعْلَاهَا
ابن ماجہ · Hadith 51
It was narrated that Anas bin Mâlik said: “The Messenger of Allah s.a.w.w. said: ‘Whoever gives up telling lies in support of a false claim, a palace will be built for him on the outskirts of Paradise. Whoever gives up argument when he is in the right, a palace will be built for him in the middle (of Paradise). And whoever has good behavior, a palace will be built for him in the highest eaches (of Paradise).’” (Hasan)
