Chapter 17 The sin of a person who makes a covenant and then proves treacherous
بَابُ إِثْمِ مَنْ عَاهَدَ ثُمَّ غَدَرَ
Sahih al-Bukhari 3178

Narrated `Abdullah bin `Amr:

Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “Whoever has (the following) four characteristics will be a pure hypocrite: “If he
speaks, he tells a lie; if he gives a promise, he breaks it, if he makes a covenant he proves treacherous;
and if he quarrels, he behaves in a very imprudent evil insulting manner (unjust). And whoever has
one of these characteristics, has one characteristic of a hypocrite, unless he gives it us.”

حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مُرَّةَ، عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏”‏ أَرْبَعُ خِلاَلٍ مَنْ كُنَّ فِيهِ كَانَ مُنَافِقًا خَالِصًا مَنْ إِذَا حَدَّثَ كَذَبَ، وَإِذَا وَعَدَ أَخْلَفَ، وَإِذَا عَاهَدَ غَدَرَ وَإِذَا خَاصَمَ فَجَرَ، وَمَنْ كَانَتْ فِيهِ خَصْلَةٌ مِنْهُنَّ كَانَتْ فِيهِ خَصْلَةٌ مِنَ النِّفَاقِ حَتَّى يَدَعَهَا ‏”‏‏.‏
