And in the Battle of Tabuk, the Prophet called them to arms as he did with others, so some of them went out with him, and some of them stayed behind, and among those who went out with him were some who intended to kill him on the road, intending to loosen the belt of his camel to make it fall into a valley there.

And with this, the answer to many doubts presented in this situation appears, for verily, many of the later generations have remained in the manifestations of Islam among them except for a just person or a rebellious person and they turned away from the judgments of the hypocrites. And the hypocrites have not ceased and they do not cease until the Day of Resurrection, and hypocrisy is a branch of many. And they were afraid of hypocrisy on themselves.

So in the two Sahihs, about the Prophet ﷺ, he said: ‘A sign of the hypocrite is three: if he talks, he lies; and if he promises, he breaks; and if he is trusted, he betrays.’

And in the two Sahihs, about Abdullah ibn Amr, about the Prophet ﷺ, that he said: ‘Four traits belong to whoever has them: he is a hypocrite in the purest form; and whoever has one of them has one aspect of hypocrisy until he leaves it: If he talks, he lies; and if he is trusted, he betrays; and if he makes a pact, he betrays; and if he disputes, he acts wickedly.’

And the Prophet ﷺ was at first praying upon them and asking forgiveness for them until Allah prohibited him from that, so He said: ‘And do not pray for anyone of them who dies ever, and do not stand at his grave.’
