At night the man was about to go out to steal.Before setting out,he thought for a moment about the promise he made __14__ Allah.“If tomorrow Allah asks me where I have been,what should I say?Should I say that I went out stealing?No,I cannot say that.If I tell the truth,everyone will start hating me and call __15__ a thief.I would be __16__ for stealing.But __17__ can I lie.”
