حَدَّثَنَا حُمَيْدُ بْنُ مَسْعَدَةَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ الْمُفَضَّلِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْجُرَيْرِيُّ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ

قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «أَلا أُحَدِّثُكُمْ بِأَكْبَرِ الْكَبَائِرِ؟ قَالُوا: بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ: الإِشْرَاكُ بِاللَّهِ، وَعُقُوقُ الْوَالِدَيْنِ قَالَ: وَجَلَسَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَكَانَ مُتَّكِئًا، قَالَ: وَشَهَادَةُ الزُّورِ، أَوْ قَوْلُ الزُّورِ، قَالَ: فَمَا زَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، يَقُولُهَا حَتَّى قُلْنَا: لَيْتَهُ سَكَتَ»

“The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam): ‘Should I tell you about the greatest of the major sins?’ They said: ‘Yes indeed, O Messenger of Allah!’

He said: ‘Associating partners with Allah, and recalcitrance against parents.’ the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) sat down, and he was leaning on a support.

He added: ‘…and false testimony or: ‘false speech.’ the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) went on speaking until we said: ‘If only he would keep silent!’’”
