What is your opinion of the one who says: The Companions had practical hypocrisy, citing the hadith: (I intended to order that the prayer be established)?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Shaykh, who said: The Companions had practical hypocrisy, and cited the hadith:
I intended to order that the prayer be established هَمَمْتُ أن آمُرَ أن تُقامَ الصلاة
, and said:
upon men who lagged behind, and to burn their houses over them على رجال يتخلَّفون فأحرِّقَ عليهم بيوتهم
; is this practical hypocrisy among the Companions?

The Shaykh : Does not the Qur'an explicitly state that there were apostates in Madinah who were upon hypocrisy?

The questioner : Shaykh, were they Companions or hypocrites?

The Shaykh : What would it be?

The questioner : I am asking this, O Shaykh.

The Shaykh : He would be a Companion, but on the surface he is a Companion, while in his heart he is a hypocrite.

The questioner : Shaykh, this book contains praise for "Abu Ghaddah," O Shaykh, perhaps you should pay attention to that.

The Shaykh : May Allah reward you with good.
The Shaykh : All right, but go now, everyone, please.
