Fulfillment of Promises and Hypocrisy

Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:

Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said,

"Three are the signs of a hypocrite:

When he speaks, he lies;

when he makes a promise, he breaks it;

and when he is trusted, he betrays his trust.''

[Al-Bukhari and Muslim]


Another narration adds the words: "Even if he observes Saum (fasts), performs Salat (prayer) and claims to be a Muslim.''
