DECEPTION
عن أبي هريرة الله أَنَّ رَسُولَ الله صلى الله عليه وسلم مَرَّ عَلَى صُبْرَةِ طَعَامٍ فَأَدْخَلَ يَدَهُ فِيهَا، فَنَالَتْ أَصَابِعُهُ بَلَلًا فَقَالَ: مَا هَذَا يَا صَاحِبَ الطَّعَامِ؟ قَالَ: أَصَابَتْهُ السَّمَاءُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: «أَفَلَا جَعَلْتَهُ فَوْقَ الطَّعَامِ كَيْ يَرَاهُ النَّاسُ، مَنْ غَشَّ فَلَيْسَ مني». أخرجه مسلم
Abu Hurayrah () narrated:
«The Messenger of Allah () passed by a pile of food (grain). He put his fingers in it and felt wetness. He asked: O owner of the food! What is this?
The man replied: It was rained upon, O Messenger of Allah (3). The Prophet () responded: Why not put it on the top of the food so people can see it?
Then he added: Whoever cheats is not one of us.>> (Muslim)
The sinful nature involved in this transaction comes from the seller knowing of a defect in the merchandise but not informing the cus- tomer. The customer might not buy the goods if the defects are made apparent, or the defect might lower the value of the goods. This de- ceit contradicts true Muslim behaviour, for the Messenger of Allah
(3) said:

عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: «أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ، إِنَّ اللَّهَ طَيِّبٌ لَا يَقْبَلُ إِلَّا طَيِّبًا، وَإِنَّ اللَّهَ أَمَرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ بِمَا أَمَرَ بِهِ الْمُرْسَلِينَ، فَقَالَ: ﴿ يَأَيُّهَا الرُّسُلُ كُلُوا مِنَ الطَّيِّبَتِ وَاعْمَلُواْ صَلِحاً إِنِّي بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ عَلِيمٌ ﴾ [المؤمنون: ٥١] وَقَالَ: ﴿ يَتَأَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا كُلُوا مِن طَيِّبَتِ مَا رَزَقْنَكُمْ ﴾ [البقرة: ۱۷۲] ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ الرَّجُلَ يُطِيلُ السَّفَرَ أَشْعَثَ أَغْبَرَ، يَمُدُّ يَدَيْهِ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ، يَا رَبِّ، يَا رَبِّ، وَمَطْعَمُهُ حَرَامٌ، وَمَشْرَبُهُ حَرَامٌ، وَمَلْبَسُهُ حَرَامٌ، وَغُذِيَ بِالْحَرَامِ، فَأَنَّى يُسْتَجَابُ لِذَلِكَ؟». أخرجه مسلم
It has been narrated by Abu Hurayrah (4) that the Messenger
:said (صلى الله عليه وسلم) of Allah
«O people! Verily Allah is pure, and He only accepts what is pure. Allah commands the believers with that with which He commanded the Messengers, and He says:
ياتها الرُّسُلُ كُلُوا مِنَ الطَّيِّبَاتِ وَاعْمَلُوا صَلِحاً ... ) (سورة المؤمنون: ٥١)
O messengers, eat from the good foods and do righteous deeds... (Qur'an 23: 51)
Allah (3) has also mentioned:
يَتَأَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا كُلُوا مِن طَيْبَتِ مَا رَزَقْنَكُمْ وَأَشْكُرُوا لِلَّهِ إِن كُنتُمْ إِيَّاهُ
تعبدون )
(سورة البقرة: (۱۷۲)
