FAMILIAL DISPUTES AND THEIR RESOLUTION. Part 6:1. English translation of a talk by Mufti Taqi Usmani DB.
It has been narrated by Hazrat Sufyan ibn Usaid Hazrami (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Holy Prophet ﷺsaid;
“This is great Khiyanat (breach of trust) that you tell your brother something which he believes to be true, but you are lying to him.”
This is an act which leads to animosity, discord, and hatred between people. Telling a lie is a great sin anyway, but in this Hadith the Holy Prophet ﷺ is specifically mentioning that lie in which someone places their trust in you and believes that you will tell him the truth. But you breach his trust and tell him a lie. This act carries the sin of not just lying, but also of Khiyanat (breach of trust).
It is Khiyanat (breach of trust) because the person who is seeking your opinion is doing so because he believes you to be trustworthy and truthful. In a Hadith, the Holy Prophet ﷺ said;
“The person whose opinion is sought, has been entrusted.”
It means that the person who is seeking your opinion and advice is trusting you to tell him the truth and what you consider to be your best option. But you have deliberately lied to him, and knowingly misguided him, therefore, you have also committed breach of his trust.
