Sunan Ibn Majah 2609 (Book 20, Hadith 77) #31963
Falsely Claiming Identity and Wala

SUMMARY: This hadith warns against falsely claiming to belong to someone other than one's real father or falsely claiming that a freed slave's Wala is for someone other than his real master.

It was narrated from Ibn Abbas that the Messenger of Allah said: "Whoever claims to belong to someone other than his father, or (a freed slave) who claims that his Wala is for other than his real master, the curse of Allah (SWT), the angels and all the people will be upon him".
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بِشْرٍ، بَكْرُ بْنُ خَلَفٍ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي الضَّيْفِ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ خُثَيْمٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏ "‏ مَنِ انْتَسَبَ إِلَى غَيْرِ أَبِيهِ أَوْ تَوَلَّى غَيْرَ مَوَالِيهِ فَعَلَيْهِ لَعْنَةُ اللَّهِ وَالْمَلاَئِكَةِ وَالنَّاسِ أَجْمَعِينَ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith warns us against falsely claiming to belong to someone other than our real father or falsely claiming that a freed slave’s Wala is for someone other than his real master. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said that if anyone does this then the curse of Allah SWT and the angels will be upon them. It is important for us to remember that we should always be honest about who we are and where we come from. We should never try to deceive people by pretending to be something or someone else because it will only bring harm upon ourselves in the end. Furthermore, it is also important for us not to take advantage of those who are less fortunate by taking away their rights as slaves or servants without their consent.
