Question:
A man said to a Muslim worker in Riyadh: "If Allah wills, I will bring you Islamic books," but he has not done so to this day, claiming that he forgets. Is this one of the characteristics of the hypocrites: "When they speak, they lie"?
Answer:
In any case, this is different: if it is not done intentionally or on purpose, but rather other matters overcame him, then it does not fall under this, if Allah wills. It only falls under this for the one who is lax.
