In Islam, giving truthful testimony is a serious obligation, as justice is a core principle. However, if the truth may lead to significant harm or unintended injustice, a Muslim should carefully consider the context, seeking to avoid harm while remaining honest. Consulting knowledgeable scholars or advisors can help navigate this situation. Factors to weigh include the intention (*niyyah*), the degree of harm, and whether alternative ways to testify truthfully but sensitively may lessen harm without compromising integrity.
