Riyad as-Salihin: Book 17, Hadith 33

‘Abdullah bin ‘Amr bin Al-‘As (May Allah be pleased with them) said: The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Whosoever possesses these four characteristics, is a sheer hypocrite; and anyone who possesses one of them, possesses a characteristic of hypocrisy till he gives it up. (These are:) When he is entrusted with something, he proves dishonest; when he talks, he tells a lie; when he makes a covenant, he acts treacherously; and when he quarrels, he utters foul language.”.

وعن عبد الله بن عمرو بن العاص رضي الله عنهما، أن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال‏:‏ ‏
“‏أربع من كن فيه كان منافقًا خالصًا، ومن كانت فيه خصلة منهن كانت فيه خصلة من نفاق حتى يدعها‏:‏ إذا أؤتمن خان، وإذا حدث كذب، وإذا عاهد غدر، وإذا خاصم فجر‏”‏ ‏(‏‏(‏متفق عليه‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏
وقد سبق بيانه مع حديث أبي هريرة بنحوه في باب الوفاء بالعهد‏.‏
