Chapter on False Testimony and What Has Been Reported Regarding it
وَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ: "لاَ يَنْقَضِي كَلاَمُ شَاهِدِ زُورٍ مِنْ بَيْنِ يَدَيِ اَلْحَاكِمِ حَتَّى يَتَبَوَّأَ مَقْعَدَهُ مِنَ اَلنَّارِ وَ كَذَلِكَ مَنْ كَتَمَ اَلشَّهَادَةَ".
The Messenger of Allah سبحانه وتعالى, peace and blessings be upon him and his family, said: "The speech of a false witness does not end before the judge without him having taken his seat in the Hellfire, and the same applies to one who conceals testimony."
