The hadith about hypocrites is one of the most important and widely discussed hadith in Islamic teachings. It has been related from the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) that Allah said, “Whoever has four characteristics will be a hypocrite, and whoever has one of them will have some degree of hypocrisy, unless he gives it up: whenever he is trusted, he betrays; whenever he speaks, he lies; whenever he makes a promise, he breaks it; and whenever he disputes, he resorts to slander.” (Sahih Bukhari, Volume 2, Book 23, Hadith 31).
This hadith is often used to explain the characteristics of a hypocrite, and it stresses the importance of always being true to one’s word and never betraying trust. It also serves as a reminder to Muslims to be mindful of their behavior and to always strive to be honest, truthful, and trustworthy in their dealings with others. By living up to the standards set forth in this hadith, Muslims can be sure that they are not falling into the trap of hypocrisy.
