حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي مَعْمَرٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ

قَالَ: لَا يَصْلُحُ الْكَذِبُ فِي جِدٍّ وَلَا هَزْلٍ، وَلَا أَنْ يَعِدَ أَحَدُكُمْ وَلَدَهُ شَيْئًا ثُمَّ لَا يُنْجِزُ لَهُ

Abdullah said, “Lying is not correct, neither in seriousness nor in jest. None of you should promise his child something and then not give it to him.”
