Chapter: What Has Been Related About Truthfulness And Falsehood

Aishah (May Allah be Pleased with her) narrated: "There was no behavior more hated to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) than lying. A man would lie in narrating something in the presence of the Prophet (ﷺ), and he would not be content until he knew that he had repented."

Comments: Lying is so abhorrent and detestable a trait in a man's character that an honorable man feels outrage and disgust against the person practicing it so intensely that he even begins to dislike and detest his company.
