Is it permissable to lie to kaafirs?.
-
Praise be to Allaah.
Lying is a reprehensible and blameworthy characteristic and is not
appropriate whether in earnest or in jest. There is no concession
allowing it except in cases of necessity in order to achieve some
definite shar'i interest that cannot be attained by telling the truth,
or to ward off serious harm that cannot be warded off by telling the
truth. If it is possible to avoid lying and to tell the truth in order
to obtain interests or ward off harm, then there is no concession that
allows lying.
Ahmad (17) narrated that Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him)
said: O people, beware of lying, for lying is contrary to faith.
Classed as saheeh by al-Albaani. Seead-Da'eefah, 5/414
It is narrated in a saheeh report from Sa'd ibn Abi Waqqaas (may Allah
be pleased with him) that he said: The Muslim could develop all sorts
of characteristics except treachery and lying.
And it is narrated in a saheeh report from Ibn Mas'ood (may Allah be
pleased with him) that he said: Lying is never appropriate in earnest
or in jest. Then he recited the words of Allah (interpretation of the
meaning):"Fear Allah, and be with those who are true (in words and
deeds)." [at-Tawbah 9:119].
Narrated by Ibn Abi Shaybah, 8/403
Muslim (2605) narrated from Umm Kalthoom bint 'Uqbah that she heard
the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him)
said: "He is not a liar who reconciles between people, saying good
things and conveying good things."
Ibn Shihaab – one of the narrators of the hadeeth – said: I did not
hear of any concession being granted concerning anything that people
call lies except in three cases: War, reconciling among people, and
what a man says to his wife or a woman says to her husband.
Imam Ahmad (26731) narrated that Umm Kalthoom bint 'Uqbah said: I
never heard the Messenger of Allah grant a concession allowing any
kind of lying except in three cases: a man who says something
intending thereby to bring about reconciliation; a man who says
something at the time of war; and a man talking to his wife or a woman
talking to her husband.
Classed as saheeh by al-Albaani inas-Saheehah, 545
The concession is granted only in these three cases and similar cases.
In all other cases the lawgiver has not allowed any concession, so
lying remains forbidden.
Indeed what the Muslim should do, especially Muslims who live in
kaafir societies, is to be keen to be honest and to avoid lying to the
kaafirs, even more keen than he is to avoid lying to the believers,
because his keenness to be honest and to connect that to the teachings
of his religion, is a kind of practical da'wah to the non-Muslims. If
they see the noble characteristics that are promoted by Islam, that
may lead to some of them entering the religion of Allah.
But if the Muslim has the image of being a liar or treacherous or
other blameworthy characteristics in front of non-Muslims, that will
put him off the religion and make him resent its followers.
And Allah knows best.

*- WHAT ISLAM SAYS -*

Islam is a religion of Mercy, Peace and Blessing. Its teachings emphasize kind hear tedness, help, sympathy, forgiveness, sacrifice, love and care.Qur’an, the Shari’ah and the life of our beloved Prophet (SAW) mirrors this attribute, and it should be reflected in the conduct of a Momin.Islam appreciates those who are kind to their fellow being,and dislikes them who are hard hearted, curt, and hypocrite.Recall that historical moment, when Prophet (SAW) entered Makkah as a conqueror. There was before him a multitude of surrendered enemies, former oppressors and persecutors, who had evicted the Muslims from their homes, deprived them of their belongings, humiliated and intimidated Prophet (SAW) hatched schemes for his murder and tortured and killed his companions. But Prophet (SAW) displayed his usual magnanimity, generosity, and kind heartedness by forgiving all of them and declaring general amnesty...Subhanallah. May Allah help us tailor our life according to the teachings of Islam. (Aameen)./-
