The next major sin is probably the most common major sin committed which is lying persistently.
Unfortunately, lying is a far too common sin found within society today even though the Holy Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, specifically labelled this sin an aspect of hypocrisy. This has been confirmed in a Hadith found in Sahih Bukhari, number 2459. Lying is unacceptable whether it is a small lie or when one lies as a joke. In fact, the one who lies to make people laugh meaning, their aim is not to deceive someone has been cursed three times in one Hadith found in Jami At Tirmidhi, number 2315. If lying while joking is cursed then can one imagine the seriousness of lying while attempting to deceive others?
Another popular type of lie people often speak believing it is not a sin is when they lie to children. This is undoubtedly a sin according to Hadiths such as the one found in Sunan Abu Dawud, number 4991. It is plain foolishness to lie to children as they will only adopt this sinful habit from the elder who lies to them. Behaving in this manner shows children that lying is acceptable when it is not according to the teachings of Islam.
All muslims desire the company of the Angels yet, when a person lies they are deprived of their company. In fact, the stench that is omitted from the mouth of the liar causes the Angels to move a mile away from them. This is confirmed in a Hadith found in Jami At Tirmidhi, number 1972. Only in very rare and extreme cases is lying acceptable for example, lying in order to protect the life of an innocent person. Therefore, muslims must avoid all forms of lying irrespective of who they are conversing with.
