May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner says: Regarding the words of Allah the Exalted about the hypocrites[Al-Munafiqun 63:2], he asks: Is this verse used as evidence that belief is called an action? Because the blame is directed at their belief, their speech, and their deeds?

Yes, belief is the action of the heart. Action is of two types: action of the heart and action of the limbs. So belief is the action of the heart. Yes.
