Riyad as-Salihin, 1532
'Aishah (May Allah be pleased with her) said:
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "I do not think that so-and-so understands anything of our Faith." <b>[Al-Bukhari]</b> Al-Bukhari said: Al- Laith bin Sa'd, who is one of the narrators of this Hadith, said: The two men mentioned by the Prophet (ﷺ) in this Hadith were hypocrites (i.e., they revealed Faith and concealed disbelief).
وعنها قالت: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم:
ما أظن فلانًا وفلانًا يعرفان من ديننا شيئًا
((رواه البخاري)). قال الليث بن سعد أحد رواة هذا الحديث: هذان الرجلان كانا من المنافقين.
