Al-Bukhaari (1903, 6057) narrated that Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “Whoever does not give up false speech and acting upon it, and ignorance, Allah has no need of him giving up his food and drink.” The phrase “false speech” includes lying, backbiting, spreading slander and bearing false witness, and every kind of speech that is haraam. Acting upon it means doing evil and immoral actions... Al-Haafiz said: With regard to the phrase “Allah has no need of him giving up his food and drink”, Ibn Battaal said: This does not mean that he is to be told to stop fasting, rather it is a warning against false speech and the other things mentioned along with it… this is an indication that (his fast) is not accepted… what is meant is that a fast that is contaminated with falsehood is rejected and that a fast that is free of that is accepted. -IslamQA.
