Ahmad transmitted it, and in Shu'ab al-Iman Bayhaqi transmitted it on the authority of Sa'd ibn AbuWaqqas.
Sunan of Abu-Dawood
Hadith 4953 Narrated by
Sufyan ibn Asid al-Hadrami
I heard the Apostle of Allah (peace be upon him) say: It is great treachery that you should tell your brother something and
have him believe you when you are lying.
Sunan of Abu-Dawood
Hadith 1542 Narrated by
AbuHurayrah
The Apostle of Allah (peace be upon him) used to say: "O Allah, I seek refuge in Thee from hunger, for it is an evil bed-fellow;
and I seek refuge in Thee from treachery, for it is an evil hidden trait."
TREASURES:
6:50 - Say: "I tell you not that with me are the treasures of Allah nor do I know what is hidden nor do
I tell you I am an angel. I but follow what is revealed to me." Say: "Can the blind be held
equal to the seeing?" Will ye then consider not? 867868
867 Literally it might mean that the men of God are not like vulgar soothsayers, who pretend to reveal hidden treasures, or
peer into future, or claim to be something of a different nature from men. But the meaning is wider: They deal out
God's great treasures of truth, but the treasures are not theirs, but God's; they have greater insight into the higher
things, but that insight is not due to their own wisdom, but to God's inspiration; they are of the same flesh and blood
with us, and the sublimity of their words and teaching arises through God's grace- to them and to those who hear
them. (6.50)
868 Therefore compare not the men of God ("the seeing") with ordinary men ("the blind"). The men of God, although they
be but men, have the higher light with them; therefore do not exact of them petty ephemeral services. Though they are
men, they are not as other men, and are entitled to reverence. (6.50)
6:59 - With Him are the keys of the Unseen the treasures that none knoweth but He. He knoweth
whatever there is on the earth and in the sea. Not a leaf doth fall but with His knowledge: there
is not a grain in the darkness (or depths) of the earth nor anything fresh or dry (green or
withered) but is (inscribed) in a Record Clear (to those who can read). 879880
879 Mafatih: Plural of either miftah= a key, or maftah= a treasure. Both meanings are implied, and I have accordingly put
both in my translation. (6.59)
880 This is the mystic Record, the archetypal Plan, the Eternal Law, according to which everything seen and unseen is
ordered and regulated. There is much mystic doctrine here, explained by beautiful metaphors and illustrations. The
simplest things in Nature are subject to His Law. The fresh and the withered, the living and the lifeless-nothing is
outside the Plan of His Creation. (6.59)
9:35 - On the day when heat will be produced out of that (wealth) in the fire of hell and with it will
be branded their foreheads their flanks and their backs "this is the (treasure) which ye buried
for yourselves: taste ye then the (treasures) ye buried!" 12931294
1293 Gold and silver, symbolising wealth which these people cherished even more than the good pleasure of their Lord, will
not only be the cause but the instrument whereby they would receive a grievous punishment. (9.35)
1294 The voice enforces the moral: "did you expect satisfaction or salvation from the treasures that you misused? Behold!
they add to your torment!" (9.35)
11:31 - "I tell you not that with me are the Treasures of Allah nor do I know what is hidden nor claim
I to be an angel. Nor yet do I say of those whom your eyes do despise that Allah will not grant
them (all) that is good: Allah knoweth best what is in their souls: I should if I did indeed be a
wrongdoer." 152215231524
1522 The eighth point that Noah urges is that he is not a mere vulgar soothsayer pretending to reveal secrets not worth
knowing, nor an angel living in another world, with no ties to them. He is their real well-wisher, delivering a true
Message from Allah. (11.31)
1523 Cf. vi. 50 and n. 867. (11.31)
1524 But Noah will not close his argument without defending the men of Faith, whom the Chiefs despise because they are
lacking in worldly goods. He tells them plainly that Allah perhaps sees in them something in which they, the arrogant
Chiefs, are lacking. Their spiritual faculties can only be appreciated truly by Him to Whom all the secrets of the spirit
are open. But he, Noah, must declare boldly his own Faith, and this is the ninth point in his argument. (11.31)
