Individual Ethics » Vices » Lying » The Closest Stage to Disbelief
الإمام جعفر الصادق (عليه السَّلام ):
لمّا سُئلَ عن مَنزِلَةِ رجُلٍ إن حَدَّثَ كَذَبَ ، و إن وَعَدَ أخلَفَ ، و إن ائتُمِنَ خانَ ـ : هِي أدنَى المَنازِلِ مِن الكُفرِ و ليسَ بكافِرٍ .

Imam al-Sadiq (AS), when asked about the status of a man who lies when he speaks, breaks promises when he makes them, and betrays trusts when entrusted with them, replied, 'This is the closest stage to disbelief but he is not to be considered a disbeliever.'

Abū Jaʿfar, Muḥammad b. Yaʿqūb b. Isḥāq al-Kulaynī Al-Rāzī (Arabic: ابوجعفر، محمّد بن یعقوب بن اسحاق الرازی) (c. 255/868-9 - 329/941) was among the greatest Shi'a hadith scholars and the author of al-Kafi, the most authentic Shi'a hadith collection and one the Four Books. He was born after the martyrdom of Imam al-'Askari (a), at the time of Imam al-Mahdi (a) and met some hadith transmitters who directly had heard hadiths from Imam al-Hadi (a) and Imam al-'Askari (a). It is said that al-Kulayni was very accurate in transmitting hadiths. Ibn Qulawayh, Muhammad b. Ali Majilawayh al-Qummi, Ahmad b. Muhammad al-Zurari were among his students.
