The questioner : The statement of Hudhayfah ibn al-Yaman: "The hypocrites today" means that they were known in the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)... so perhaps he knew those who remained among them...?
The Shaykh : No, no, that does not hold up, because he said "today they are openly known," not "today they are known." He said they are openly known. Do you have anything regarding this, and what would you say?
