Islamic Manners (1): Sidq (Truthfulness
 

Allâh, Exalted is He says, "You who have faith! Have taqwâ of Allâh
and be with the truthful"; "...being true to Allâh would be better
for
them"; "... men and women who are truthful...Allâh has prepared for
them
forgiveness and an immense reward"; "Among the believers are those
who
have been true to the contract they made with Allâh. Some of them
have
fulfilled their pact by death and some are still waiting to do so,
not
having changed in any way at all. So that Allâh might recompense the
truthful for their sincerity..."
Truthfulness is the conformity of the outer with the inner, speech
with deed, and narrative with reality. [1]
Therefore truthfulness occurs in intention, speech and deed and not
just speech as many people may think. As such a person who informs of
something that is not in conformity to reality is not truthful, a
person who does a good deed intending to show off is not being
truthful, a hypocrite who shows faith but conceals disbelief is not
being truthful, a person who shows one face here and another face
there is not being truthful etc.
