Punishment of a person who double-talks

حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الصَّفَّارُ عَنِ الْمُنَبِّهِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْحُسَیْنِ عَنْ عُلْوَانَ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ خَالِدٍ عَنْ زَیْدِ بْنِ عَلِیٍّ عَنْ آبَائِهِ ع قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص یَجِی ءُ یَوْمَ الْقِیَامَهِ ذُو الْوَجْهَیْنِ دَالِعاً لِسَانُهُ فِی قَفَاهُ وَ آخَرُ مِنْ قُدَّامِهِ یتلهبا [یَتَلَهَّبَانِ] نَاراً حَتَّی یَلْهَبَا جَسَدَهُ ثُمَّ یُقَالُ لَهُ هَذَا الَّذِی کَانَ فِی الدُّنْیَا ذَا وَجْهَیْنِ وَ لِسَانَیْنِ یُعْرَفُ بِذَلِکَ یَوْمَ الْقِیَامَهِ.
2. Zaid bin Ali عليه السلام narrates from Amirul Momineen عليه السلام who in turn narrates that the Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم said, “One who double-talks will arrive on the Day of Judgment having one of his tongue in front and another behind. Both will be engulfed in flames. Then his whole body will get engulfed in flames. People will say that this is the same one who used to double-talk.”
