Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, does a heart truly contain two opposites, or does the heart hold a belief while the tongue displays something else? What is in the heart?
Answer:
It is not in the heart and the tongue; it is in the heart. Allah (Mighty and Majestic) says:[Yusuf 12:106] So disbelief and faith coexist in the heart, and hypocrisy and faith coexist in it. This is among the wonders of the heart, among the wonders of this morsel of flesh. It may contain pure faith, it may contain pure disbelief or pure hypocrisy, and it may contain both: faith and disbelief, and faith and hypocrisy coexisting in it. Yes.

It is not in the heart and the tongue; it is in the heart. Allah (Mighty and Majestic) says:
And most of them believe not in Allah except while they associate others with Him.
وَمَا يُؤْمِنُ أَكْثَرُهُم بِاللَّهِ إِلَّا وَهُم مُّشْرِكُونَ
