'Abdullah bin 'Amr radhiallahu'anhu narrated that the Messenger of Allah SAW said:
"Whoever has the following four (characteristics), will be a pure hypocrite; and whoever has one of the following (characteristics), will have one characteristic of hypocrisy unless and until he gives it up:
(1) Whenever he speaks, he tells a lie
(2) Whenever he makes a covenant, he proves treacherous
(3) Whenever he promises, he always breaks it
(4) Whenever he quarrels, he behaves in a very imprudent, evil and insulting manner (using abusive language and deviating from the truth)"
But in a Hadith narrated by Sufyan: "If he has any characteristic, he would have the characteristic of hypocrisy."
