"عن أَبى عثمان النهدى قال: سَمعْتُ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ يَقُولُ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ: إِنَّ أَخْوَفَ مَا أَخَافُ عَلَى هَذِهِ الأُمَّةِ الْمُنَافِقُ الْعَليمُ، قَالُوا: وَكَيْفَ يَكُونُ مُنَافِقٌ عَلِيمٌ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنينَ؟ قَالَ: عَالِمُ اللِّسَانِ، جَاهِلُ الْقَلبِ وَالْعَمَلِ".

"Narrated from Abu 'Uthman al-Nahdi: I heard 'Umar ibn al-Khattab say on the pulpit: 'Indeed, what I fear most for this Ummah is the knowledgeable hypocrite.' They said: 'How can there be a knowledgeable hypocrite, O Commander of the Believers?' He said: 'One who knows with the tongue but is ignorant in the heart and in deeds.'"
