The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The signs of a hypocrite are three. When he speaks, he lies. When he makes a promise, he breaks it. When he is entrusted with something, he betrays the trust."
حدثنا أبو حفص عمرو بن علي حدثنا يحيى بن محمد بن قيس عن العلاء بن عبد الرحمن عن أبيه
قال رسول الله ﷺ آية المنافق ثلاث إذا حدث كذب وإذا وعد أخلف وإذا اؤتمن خان
