Riyad al-SalihinAl-Nawawi

1592 – ʿAbd Allah ibn ʿAmr ibn al-ʿĀṣ (may Allah be pleased with them both) reported that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said, “There are four qualities; whoever possesses all of them is a pure hypocrite, and whoever possesses one of them has in him a trait of hypocrisy until he gives it up: when he is entrusted, he betrays; when he speaks, he lies; when he makes a covenant, he breaks it; and when he quarrels, he behaves outrageously.” Agreed upon.

1593 – Ibn Masʿūd, Ibn ʿUmar, and Anas (may Allah be pleased with them) said: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, “Every traitor will have a banner (1) on the Day of Resurrection; it will be proclaimed, ‘This is the betrayal of so-and-so.’ ” Agreed upon.

1594 – Abū Saʿīd al-Khudrī (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, “Every traitor will have a banner fastened to his backside (2) on the Day of Resurrection; it will be raised in proportion to the gravity of his treachery. Indeed, no traitor is guiltier of betrayal than one who leads the public.” Recorded by Muslim.

1595 – Abū Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, “Allah the Exalted said: Three people I will oppose on the Day of Resurrection: a man who pledged in My Name and then betrayed, a man who sold a free person and consumed his price, and a man who hired a worker, took full labor from him, yet did not pay him his wage.” Recorded by al-Bukhārī (3).

278 – Chapter: The Prohibition of Reminding Others of One’s Gift and the Like

Allah the Exalted says: “O you who believe, do not nullify your charities by reminders of your generosity or by harm.” (Q 2:264)

And He says: “Those who spend their wealth in the way of Allah…” (Q 2:262)

(1) al-ghadir refers to a person who makes a covenant but fails to honor it. al-liwaʾ is a large military banner carried only by the commander of the army or the officer who rallies the troops, with everyone falling in behind him. The meaning is that every treacherous person will have a banner—i.e., a public mark—by which he will be recognized. The pre-Islamic Arabs used to erect such banners in market-places to expose a traitor’s deceit. (2) Meaning: his back (specifically, the rump). (3) The chain of transmission includes a narrator whom Ibn Hajar and other scholars judged weak; see my Mukhtasar Sahih al-Bukhari, no. 34, Book of Sales, ḥadith 106, chap. N.
