It is narrated on the authority of Abdullah b. 'Amr that the Prophet observed:

 

"There are four characteristics, whoever has them all is a pure hypocrite, and whoever has one of its characteristics, he has one of the characteristics of hypocrisy, until he gives it up: When he speaks he lies, when he makes a covenant he betrays it, when he makes a promise he breaks it, and when he disputes he resorts to obscene speech." In the narration of Sufyan (one of the narrators) it is: "And if he has one of them, he has one of the characteristics of hypocrisy." (Sahih Muslim Book 1 - Hadith 116)

 

It is reported on the authority of Abu Huraira that the Messenger of Allah (may peace and blessings be upon him) said:

 

Three are the signs of a hypocrite: when he spoke he told a lie, when he made a promise he acted treacherously against it, when he was trusted he betrayed. (Sahih Muslim Book 1 - Hadith 117)

 

Abu Huraira reported that the Messenger of Allah (may peace and blessings be upon him) observed:

 

There are three characteristics of a hypocrite: when he spoke he told a lie, when he made promise he acted treacherously, and when he was trusted he betrayed. (Sahih Muslim Book 1 - Hadith 118)

 

'Uqba b. Mukarram al-'Ami reported that he heard 'Ala' b. 'Abdur-Rahman narrating this hadith with this chain of transmitters and he said:

 

Three are the signs of a hypocrite, even if he observed fast and prayed and asserted that he was a Muslim. (Sahih Muslim Book 1 - Hadith 119)

 

It is reported on the authority of Abu Huraira that the Messenger of Allah (may peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) made observations like them embodied in the hadith narrated by Yahya b. Muhammad on the authority of 'Ala', and added to it:

It is reported on the authority of Ibn 'Umar that the Apostle (may peace and blessings be upon him) observed:

 

When a man calls his brother an unbeliever, it returns (at least) to one of them. (Sahih Muslim Book 1 - Hadith 121)

 

It is reported on the authority of Ibn 'Umar that the Messenger of Allah (may peace and blessings be upon him) said:

 

Any person who called his brother: "O unbeliever" (has in fact done an act by which this unbelief) would return to one of them. If it were so, as he asserted (then the unbelief of man was confirmed but if it was not true), then it returned to him (to the man who labeled it on his brother Muslim). (Sahih Muslim Book 1 - Hadith 122)

 

It is reported on the authority of Abu Dharr that he heard the Messenger of Allah (may peace and blessings be upon him) saying:

 

No person who claimed knowingly anyone else as his father besides (his own) committed nothing but infidelity, and he who made a claim of anything, which (in fact) did not belong to him, is not amongst us; he should make his abode in Fire, and he who labeled anyone with unbelief or called him the enemy of Allah, and he was in fact not so, it rebounded on him. (Sahih Muslim Book 1 - Hadith 123)

It is reported on the authority of Sa'd b. Abi Waqqas:

 

Both of my ears heard the Messenger of Allah saying this: He who claimed the fatherhood of anyone else besides his real father knowingly (committed a great sin) ;Paradise is forbidden to him.

Sa'd and Abu Bakra each one of them said:

 

My ears heard and my hearing preserved it that Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) observed: He who claimed for another one his fatherhood besides his own father knowingly that he was not his father-to him Paradise is forbidden. (Sahih Muslim Book 1 - Hadith 126)
