MY question is, if someone lies to you by saying all ur sins we be
removed and u will be like a new born baby if you give zakat every
month. and u ask them for daleel and them give usome made up
daleel(proof) and u do that act such as giving zakat every month. so
even if that wasn't true and the person lied to u but u searched the
the daleel and found it but actually the daleel wasn't true would all
ur sins still be erased?
Im asking this question because this problem happens to many people.
Praise be to Allaah.
With regard to the one who deliberately tells a lieabout Allah and His
Messenger, he is promisedthe punishment of Hellfire. It was narrated
that Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger
of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: "Whoever
tells a lie about me deliberately, let him take his place in Hell."
Narrated by al-Bukhaari (110) and Muslim (2).
Some of those who tell lies about Islam think thatthey are doing
somethinggood if the lie is about virtues or encouraging people to do
good deeds or deterring them from doing bad deeds.
Al-Nawawi (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
When he forbade lying about him, the Prophet (blessings and peace of
Allah be upon him) did not differentiate between that which has to do
with rulings and that which does not have to do with rulings, such as
encouraging people to do good deeds, deterring them from doing bad
deeds, exhorting and so on. All lies about him are haraam and are
major sins and abhorrent actions, according to the consensus of those
Muslims whose opinions are qualified to be taken as part of consensus,
in contrast to the innovatorsof the Karaamiyyah groupwho falsely
claimed that it is permissible to fabricate hadeeths with regard to
encouraging people to do good deeds and deterring them from doing bad
deeds, and they were followed in that regard by many ignorant people
who claimed to be ascetics or who were classified as such by ignorant
people. Their opinions, actions and evidence are indicative of a great
deal of ignorance and negligence, and are the clearest proof that they
have no knowledge of any of the basic rulings of Islam. In their
views, they have combined many flaws that are suited to their foolish
minds and corrupt way of thinking. They have gone against the words of
Allah, may He be glorified and exalted (interpretation of the
meaning): "And follownot (O man, i.e., say not, or do not, or witness
not) that of which you have noknowledge. Verily, the hearing, and the
sight, and the heart of each of those ones will be questioned (by
Allaah)" [al-Isra' 17:36]. And they have gone against the clear
meaning of these mutawaatir hadeeths andwell known hadeeths which
regard false testimony as a very serious matter. And they have gone
against the consensus of the scholars and other definitive evidence
that proves that it is haraam to attribute words falsely to any
individual, so how about the one whose words are part of sharee'ah and
regarded as Wahy (Revelation)? If you look at their words, you will
find that they are telling lies about Allah, may He be exalted. Allah,
may He be exalted, says (interpretation of the meaning): "Nor does he
speak of (his own) desire. 4. It is only a Revelation revealed"
[al-Najm 53:3].
End quote from Sharh Muslim, 1/70, 71
What is based on an invalid foundation is invalid. Whoever does anyact
of worship thinking that he will have a specificreward, then finds out
that that is not so, will not have the reward that he thought he would
get, because the issue of reward rests with Allah and does not depend
on weak and fabricated hadeeths.
This does not mean that he is sinning, because of the hadeeth of Abu
Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) who said: The Messenger of
Allah (blessings and peaceof Allah be upon him) said: "Whoever is
given a verdict that is not based on proper knowledge, his sins will
be on the one who gave him the verdict." Narrated by Abu Dawood (3657)
and Ibn Maajah (53); classed as hasan by Shaykh al-Albaani in Saheeh
al-Jaami', 6069.
So this person who gave charity will have a rewardfor his charity, and
charityis one of the causes of forgiveness for sins. But asto whether
all sins will be forgiven because of charity, Allah knows best.
Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah said, when discussing innovated acts of worship:
There is no doubt that theone who does them on the basis of his own
misinterpretation or because he is following (a shaykh or scholar)
will have one reward for his good intention and will be rewarded for
his deed inasmuch as it is in accordance with sharee'ah,
