{TRUTHFULNESS} it is the basis of all actions of the heart. The term (sidq) truthfulness covers various aspects: 1) truthfulness in ones speech. 2) truthfulness in ones intention and desire. 3) truthfulness in ones promises and fulfilling them. 4) truthfulness in ones determination. 5) truthfulness in ones action, where his outward and inward are the same, such as humbleness in prayer. 6) truthfulness in fulfilling the different aspects of the religion. This is the highest level, such as being truthful in ones fear, hope, asceticism, pleasure, trust, love and the rest of the actions of the heart. Whoever is truthful in all of what was previously mentioned then he is the truthful one because he has truly reached the level of the truthful one. The prophet (s.a.w.s) said: Be truthful, for truthfulness leads to righteousness, and righteousness leads to paradise. And a man keeps on telling the truth until he becomes a truthful person. Falsehood leads to Al-fajur (i.e. Wickedness, evil-doing), and Al- fajur (wickedness) leads to the (hell) fire, and a man may keep on telling lies till he is written before Allah, a liar. (al-Bukhari and Muslim). Whoever is confused of what is true from that which is false and is truthful in seeking the truth, without following his desires then it is likely that he is going to be successful in his search. If he is not, then Allah will excuse him. Lying opposes being truthful. The first thing lying reaches to and corrupts in a person is the tongue then the limbs, and it does the same as it did to the tongue. After that, it spreads and becomes a part of all his saying, actions and all of his affairs until he becomes surrounded by it. A uzu biAllah. So, brothers and sisters in islam let us fear Allah and be truthfuls in our day to day activities. May Allah, distance us from ous sins just as he have distanced the east from the west. O Allah, purify us of our sins as a white robe is purified of filth. O Allah, cleanse us of our sins with water, snow and hail.
