Choosing Truth Over Benefit

Hadith of the Day is a daily feature highlighting timeless sayings of the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) and the Ahlul-Bayt (pbut), offering insights into faith, ethics, and spirituality for contemporary life.

Hawzah News Agency- Muhammad ibn Musa ibn al‑Mutawakkil (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that Muhammad ibn Yahya al‑Attar narrated from Muhammad ibn Ahmad, from Ali ibn Hassan al‑Wasiti, who raised it to Zurarah, from Imam Sadiq (pbuh), who said:

إِنَّ مِنْ حَقِیقَهِ الْإِیمَانِ أَنْ تُؤْثِرَ الْحَقَّ وَ إِنْ ضَرَّکَ عَلَی الْبَاطِلِ وَ إِنْ نَفَعَکَ وَ أَنْ لَا یَجُوزَ مَنْطِقُکَ عِلْمَکَ.

Indeed, part of the very reality of faith is that you:

1. Give precedence to the truth, even if it harms you, over falsehood, even if it benefits you;

2. And that your speech does not go beyond your knowledge.

Al-Khisal,Book 2,Chapter 70
