The Importance of Truthfulness in Hadith Narration

SUMMARY: It is important to be truthful when narrating hadiths from the Prophet (ﷺ).

It was narrated from 'Ali that: The Prophet said: '"Whoever narrates a Hadith from me thinking it to be false, then he is one of the two liars". (Either the one who invents a lie or the one who repeats it; both are liars).
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ هَاشِمٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى، عَنِ الْحَكَمِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ـ ـ قَالَ ‏ "‏ مَنْ حَدَّثَ عَنِّي حَدِيثًا وَهُوَ يُرَى أَنَّهُ كَذِبٌ فَهُوَ أَحَدُ الْكَاذِبَيْنِ
