If you come I'll give you a sweet |

Are you allowed to trick children? عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَامِرٍ أَنَّهُ قَالَ دَعَتْنِي أُمِّي يَوْمًا وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَاعِدٌ فِي بَيْتِنَا فَقَالَتْ هَا تَعَالَ أُعْطِيكَ ‏.‏ فَقَالَ لَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏((وَمَا أَرَدْتِ أَنْ تُعْطِيهِ ؟))‏ قَالَتْ أُعْطِيهِ تَمْرًا.‏ فَقَالَ لَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ ‏((أَمَا إِنَّكِ لَوْ لَمْ تُعْطِيهِ شَيْئًا كُتِبَتْ عَلَيْكِ كِذْبَةٌ)). Narrated 'Abdullah ibn 'Aamir: My mother called me one day when the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was sitting in our house. She said: Come here and I will give you something. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) asked her: What did you intend to give him? She replied: I intended to give him some dates. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “If you did not give him anything, a lie would have been recorded against you.” [Reported by Abu Dawud (4991) - graded 'Hasan' by Sheikh Albani]
