حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ نُمَيْرٍ ح وَحَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي حَدَّثَنَا الأَعْمَشُ ح وَحَدَّثَنِي زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مُرَّةَ عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ:
«أَرْبَعٌ مَنْ كُنَّ فِيهِ كَانَ مُنَافِقًا خَالِصًا، وَمَنْ كَانَتْ فِيهِ خَلَّةٌ مِنْهُنَّ كَانَتْ فِيهِ خَلَّةٌ مِنْ نِفَاقٍ حَتَّى يَدَعَهَا: (١) إِذَا حَدَّثَ كَذَبَ، (٢) وَإِذَا عَاهَدَ غَدَرَ، (٣) وَإِذَا وَعَدَ أَخْلَفَ، (٤) وَإِذَا خَاصَمَ فَجَرَ».

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “There are four traits; whoever has them is a pure hypocrite, and whoever has one of them has a trait of hypocrisy until he gives it up: (1) when he speaks, he lies; (2) when he makes a covenant, he betrays it; (3) when he makes a promise, he breaks it; (4) when he argues, he becomes obscene.”
