Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ خُثَيْمٍ عَنْ شَهْرِ بْنِ حَوْشَبٍ عَنْ أَسْمَاءَ بِنْتِ يَزِيدَ عَنْ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ لَا يَصْلُحُ الْكَذِبُ إِلَّا فِي ثَلَاثٍ كَذِبُ الرَّجُلِ مَعَ امْرَأَتِهِ لِتَرْضَى عَنْهُ أَوْ كَذِبٌ فِي الْحَرْبِ فَإِنَّ الْحَرْبَ خَدْعَةٌ أَوْ كَذِبٌ فِي إِصْلَاحٍ بَيْنَ النَّاسِ.
English Translation
Abd al-Razzaq narrated to us, Sufyan informed us, from Abdullah ibn Uthman ibn Khuthaym, from Shahr ibn Hawshab, from Asma' bint Yazid, from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), who said: "Lying is not permissible except in three matters: a man's lying to his wife to please her, lying in war for war is deception, or lying to reconcile between people."
