Condemnation of Double-faced People
وَعَنْ محمد بْن زيد أن ناسًا قالوا لجده عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللَّه عَنْهُمَا: إنا ندخل على سلاطيننا فنقول لهم بخلاف مَا نَتَكَلَّمُ إِذَا خَرَجْنَا مِنْ عِنْدِهِمْ. قَالَ: كُنَّا نعد هذا نفاقًا عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّه عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ . ((رَوَاهُ الْبُخَارِيّ)).
Muhammad bin Zaid reported: Some people said to my grandfather, 'Abdullah bin 'Umar (May Allah be pleased with them): We visit our rulers and tell them things contrary to what we say when we leave them. 'Abdullah bin 'Umar (May Allah be pleased with them) replied: "In the days of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), we counted this act as an act of hypocrisy." [Al-Bukhari].
