And the essence of the matter is that the one name is negated and asserted according to the rulings related to it; it is not necessary if it is asserted or negated in a ruling to be the same in all rulings, and this is in the speech of the Arabs and all nations, because the meaning is understood, for example, the hypocrites may be considered among the believers in one position, and in another position, it is said: What are they of them? Allah, the Exalted, said: Indeed, He knows the hindrances among you and those who accept to their brothers, come to us and do not come to hardship except a little.

They glance at you, and when the fear comes, you see them looking at you, their eyes turning as if they are fainting from death; and when the fear is gone, they will dart at you with sharp tongues. Those are upon the good; those who do not believe. And Allah has nullified their actions, and that was easy for Allah.

And he said in another verse: And they swear by Allah that they are from you, and they are not of you; but they are a people who fear. If they find a refuge or a cave or a way, they would hastily escape to it while galloping.

And these their sin was lighter, for they did not harm the believers, nor did they speak injuriously with sharp tongues; but they claimed by Allah that they are from the believers inwardly with their hearts; and if not, then the believers indeed knew that they are from them in the apparent, so Allah discredited them.

And for this reason, when the Prophet, peace be upon him, was asked for permission to kill some hypocrites, he said: "No, let people not say that Muhammad is killing his companions." (1) They are from his companions in appearance to those who do not know the realities of matters, and his companions were not among them as those who know his Sunnah.
