[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever listens to the speech of a people, while they hate him, pours molten lead into his ears, and whoever dreams something false will be punished until he ties a camel's hair, but he is not able to do so, and whoever captures a picture will be commanded to breathe life into it, but he is not able to do so."

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْ تَسَمَّعَ إِلَى حَدِيثِ قَوْمٍ وَهُمْ لَهُ كَارِهُونَ صُبَّ فِي أُذُنِهِ الْآنُكُ وَمَنْ تَحَلَّمَ عُذِّبَ حَتَّى يَعْقِدَ شَعِيرَةً وَلَيْسَ بِعَاقِدٍ وَمَنْ صَوَّرَ صُورَةً كُلِّفَ أَنْ يَنْفُخَ وَلَيْسَ بِنَافِخٍ

If anyone makes a representation of anything, Allah will punish him on the Day of Resurrection for it until he breathes into it, but he will be unable to do so. If anyone pretends to have had a dream which he did not see, he will be ordered to tie a knot in a grain of barley. If anyone listens to other people’s talk when they try to avoid him, lead will be poured into his ears on the Day of Resurrection.
