What is the explanation of the hadith: "One who claims to have been given what he has not been given is like one who wears two garments of falsehood," and what is its reason?

One who claims to possess what they do not have is blameworthy, for they show people what they lack and adorn themselves with falsehood. They are like one who wears two garments of falsehood. Scholars have differed regarding the meaning of "two garments of falsehood":

1. People of asceticism and worship: They wear their clothes to appear as one of them, showing more humility and asceticism than what is in their heart. 2. Wearing others' clothes: They wear two garments belonging to someone else to mislead people into thinking they are their own. 3. A shirt with two extra sleeves: They wear one shirt and add two more sleeves to make it seem as if they are wearing two shirts. 4. State and doctrine: The garment here symbolizes one's state, like someone who claims a quality they do not possess. 5. A false witness: They wear two beautiful garments so that their testimony may be accepted.

The dual form in "two garments of falsehood" (ثوبي زور) indicates:

The lie of the one who adorns themselves is twofold: they lie to themselves and to others. An indication of emphasizing the warning against this behavior. An indication that falsehood has encompassed the person entirely, as if they are clothed in falsehood from head to toe. That claiming what one does not possess results in two blameworthy states: the loss of what they pretend to have, and the display of falsehood.
