Even if there were only these three hundred hypocrites among this thousand of the Muslims, it would be enough evidence confirming that hypocrisy was spread at the time of the revelation; then how could it be ceased only when the revelation stopped and the Prophet (s) went to the better world? Was the existence of the Prophet (s) the reason behind the hypocrisy of the hypocrites? Was his death the reason behind their faith, fairness and their being the best of the people after the prophets?
How did they change just when the Prophet (s) died to be, after being hypocrites, sacred and holy people that no one could suspect whatever crimes and sins they committed? What was the purpose of this blind obstinacy that disgusted the hearings, the sights and the hearts?! The Qur'an and the Sunna have many evidences proving that the hypocrites have remained on their hypocrisy without repenting.
Allah has said: (And Muhammad is no more than a messenger; the [1] Some ones of the companions had rolled rocks in the night of al-Aqaba to frighten the she-camel of the Prophet (s) to make him fall down. That night the Prophet (s) was coming back from the battle of Tabook where he had left Imam Ali (s) in his place in Medina.
Ahmad bin Hanbal has mentioned in his Musnad, vol.5 a long tradition narrated by Abut Tufayl about this calamity and at the end of the tradition it has been said that the Prophet (s) had cursed a group of his companions on that day. [2] Mentioned by all the historians who have recorded the events of Uhud. messengers have already passed away before him; if then he dies or is killed will you turn back upon your heels?
And whoever turns back upon his heels, he will by no means do harm to Allah in the least and Allah will reward the grateful) 3:144. Al-Bukhari mentioned in his Sahih[1] a tradition narrated by Abu Hurayra that the Prophet (s) had said: While I will be standing (on the Day of Resurrection), a group of people will come. When I know them, a man (an angel) will come out between me and them saying to them: Come on! I will say: Where to? He will say: To Hell, by Allah. I will ask: What for?
he will say: They have apostatized after you. Then another group will come. When I know them, a man (an angel) will come out between me and them saying to them: Come on! I will ask: Where to? He will say: To Hell, by Allah. I will say: What for? He will say: They have apostatized after you. I think that only a very few of them will be rescued.
