Dear Islamic brothers! You must remember that lying is impermissible and a sin however  there are some situations or cases in which Islamic Shari’ah permits lying due to a necessity or desperate situation, in which case it shall not be a sin. Nevertheless, in any case where a purpose can be fulfilled by speaking both the truth or a lie then lying in this case will be Haraam. If a virtuous objective can be obtained by lying but not by telling the truth then in certain situations lying is also permissible, rather in certain situations it will become necessary (Wajib), for example:

 -1If a tyrant intends to murder or harm an innocent person who is hiding from him to save his life and the tyrant asks you to disclose the innocent man’s whereabouts then even if you are aware of his location you are permitted to lie and say that you are unaware.

 -2Or if you are entrusted with something valuable by someone else and a dishonest individual asks you to disclose its location because he intends to steal it then you can deny having possession of the entrusted valuables. (Rad-dul-Muhtar, vol. 9, pp. 705)

 -3Similarly, if there is a dispute between two Muslims and you want to make reconciliation between them both then you can comment in front of one of the two “he believes that you are a good person, and praises you” or “he’s asked me to convey his Salam to you”, and you are permitted to make similar remarks in front of the second person in order to diminish their hostility and cause reconciliation between them both.

 -4Even saying something untrue to your wife in order to please her (will also not be lying). (Al-Fatawa Al-Hindiyyah, vol. 5, pp. 352)
