It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) said: Whoever possesses four traits will be a hypocrite, and whoever has one of these four traits will have a trait of hypocrisy until he gives it up: when he speaks, he lies; when he makes a promise, he breaks it; when he makes a pact, he betrays it; and when he quarrels, he abuses.
