Lying is generally considered a sin for believers by Islamic jurists, but this is not a blanket judgement. The tradition records Muhammad lying and [[Qur'an, Hadith and Scholars:Muhammad and Oaths|breaking oaths]] on a number of occasions when it served his purpose, particularly when it came to warfare. Such was his fodness for the tactic that there are two instances of [[sahih]] hadith recording his saying: "war is deceit." In addition, Allah himself is recorded as being "the best deceiver" and leading those he disapproves of to the fire; in fact, according to the doctrine of [[Qur'an, Hadith and Scholars:Predestination|qadr]] all those who go to hell are deliberately decieved by Allah into this final doom.
