قَالَ اللهُ جَلَّ ثَنَاؤُهُ فِي مَدْحِ قَوْمٍ {يُوفُونَ بِالنَّذْرِ وَيَخَافُونَ يَوْمًا كَانَ شَرُّهُ مُسْتَطِيرًا} [الإنسان: 7]، وَقَالَ فِي ذَمِّ آخَرِينَ {وَمِنْهُمْ مَنْ عَاهَدَ اللهَ لَئِنْ آتَانَا مِنْ فَضْلِهِ لَنَصَّدَّقَنَّ وَلَنَكُونَنَّ مِنَ الصَّالِحِينَ فَلَمَّا آتَاهُمْ مِنْ فَضْلِهِ بَخِلُوا بِهِ وَتَوَلَّوْا وَهُمْ مُعْرِضُونَ فَأَعْقَبَهُمْ نِفَاقًا فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ إِلَى يَوْمِ يَلْقَوْنَهُ بِمَا أَخْلَفُوا اللهَ مَا وَعَدُوهُ وَبِمَا كَانُوا يَكْذِبُونَ} [التوبة: 76].
Allah, exalted be His praise, said in praise of a people: "They fulfil their vows and fear a Day whose evil will be widespread." [Surah al-Insan: 7]
And He said in condemnation of others: "And among them are those who made a covenant with Allah: 'If He gives us of His bounty, we will surely give charity and surely be among the righteous.' But when He gave them of His bounty, they were stingy with it and turned away, and they are averse. So He put hypocrisy into their hearts as a consequence, until the Day they will meet Him, because they broke the promise they had made to Allah and because they used to lie." [Surah al-Tawbah: 75-77]

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، أنبأ أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ الْمَحْبُوبِيُّ ثنا سَعِيدُ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ، ثنا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُوسَى، ثنا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ ح، وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، ثنا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ عَفَّانَ الْعَامِرِيُّ، ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مُرَّةَ، عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَفِي رِوَايَةِ سُفْيَانَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " أَرْبَعٌ مَنْ كُنَّ فِيهِ كَانَ مُنَافِقًا خَالِصًا، وَمَنْ كَانَتْ فِيهِ خَصْلَةٌ مِنْهُنَّ كَانَتْ فِيهِ خَصْلَةٌ مِنْ نِفَاقٍ حَتَّى يَدَعَهَا: إِذَا حَدَّثَ كَذَبَ، وَإِذَا عَاهَدَ غَدَرَ، وَإِذَا وَعَدَ أَخْلَفَ، وَإِذَا خَاصَمَ فَجَرَ " رَوَاهُ مُسْلِمٌ فِي الصَّحِيحِ عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَمُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ، وَأَخْرَجَاهُ مِنْ حَدِيثِ سُفْيَانَ الثَّوْرِيِّ.
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever has four things in him is a pure hypocrite. Whoever has one of the four has one trait of hypocrisy until he abandons it: (1) when he speaks, he lies; (2) he breaks his promise; (3) when he disputes, he resorts to abuse; (4) he breaks his covenant."
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْحَسَنِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ دَاوُدَ الْعَلَوِيُّ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ أنبأ أَبُو حَامِدٍ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ الْحَافِظُ ثنا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ بِشْرِ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ، ثنا بَهْزُ بْنُ أَسَدٍ، ثنا شُعْبَةُ، أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو جَمْرَةَ قَالَ: دَخَلَ عَلَيَّ زَهْدَمٌ فَأَخْبَرَنِي أَنَّهَ سَمِعَ عِمْرَانَ بْنَ حُصَيْنٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " خَيْرُكُمْ قَرْنِي، ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ، ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ، ثُمَّ يَكُونُ قَوْمٌ بَعْدَهُمْ، يَخُونُونَ وَلَا يُؤْتَمَنُونَ، وَيَشْهَدُونَ وَلَا يُسْتَشْهَدُونَ، وَيَنْذِرُونَ وَلَا يُوفُونَ، وَيَظْهَرُ فِيهِمْ السِّمَنُ " رَوَاهُ مُسْلِمٌ فِي الصَّحِيحِ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ بِشْرٍ، وَأَخْرَجَاهُ مِنْ وَجْهٍ آخَرَ عَنْ شُعْبَةَ.
Abu Jamrah (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Zahdam (may Allah have mercy on him) came to me, and he had heard Sayyiduna Imran bin Husayn (may Allah be pleased with him) say that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The best era is mine, then that of those who come after me, then that of those who come after them. Then after them there will come a people who will betray and will not be trustworthy; they will give testimony though their testimony is not asked for; they will make vows but not fulfil them; and obesity will appear among them."
