It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Bakrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said three times: "Shall I not inform you of the greatest of the major sins?" The companions said: "O Messenger of Allah! Certainly." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Associating partners with Allah and disobedience to parents." He (peace and blessings be upon him) was reclining, then he sat up and said: "Listen, and false speech." He (peace and blessings be upon him) kept repeating it until I said: I wished he would be silent.
