Because the hadith allows lying to:
* Enemies ("in battle", see [[Taqiyya]])
* Friends ("bringing reconciliation amongst persons")
* Husband to his wife, and a wife to her husband
See also: [[Qur%27an,_Hadith_and_Scholars:Lying_and_Deception#It.27s_not_lawful_to_lie_except_in_3_cases_.28that_cover_too_much.29]] (Jami` at-Tirmidhi 4:25:1939)
The question arises whether there is any case for lying that doesn't fall into these three cases.
