Muwatta Malik #1952
Speech
Malik related to me from Safwan ibn Sulaym that a man asked the
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, "Can I
lie to my wife, Messenger of Allah?" The Messenger of Allah, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, said, "There is no good in lying." The
man said, "Messenger of Allah! Shall I make her a promise and tell
her?" The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace,
said, "It will not be held against you."
