many ryadiths. He () said: "Whoever narrates a ryadith thinking<br />

that it may be a lie, then he is a liar."119<br />

Another of Iblis's tricks is for narrators to narrate ryadiths in a<br />

manner that deceives the listener to think that the narrator has heard<br />

the tradition from his teacher, when in fact he has not. This is ugly<br />

because listeners will think that the narration is of a continuous<br />

chain when in fact it is not.<br />

Others narrate ryadiths that contain weak narrators and liars but<br />

without mentioning their names to the listener. <strong>The</strong>y may sometimes<br />

mention them <strong>by</strong> their nicknames so no one could know them.<br />

This is an atrocity against religion because a ruling may be given and<br />

affirmed (<strong>by</strong> this false narration).<br />

Also, they sometimes narrate traditions with trustworthy narrators,<br />

but in order to seem like they have numerous teachers, they<br />

might mention a narrator <strong>by</strong> his grandfather's name. This is disliked,<br />

and it is a form of being untruthful.<br />
