The likeness of a hypocrite who recites the Koran is that of a
fragrant plant but is bitter to the taste; and the likeness of a

that has no aroma and tastes bitter.”
Bukhari and Muslim with a chain up to Abu Musa Ash'ari who related this.

hypocrite who does not recite the Koran is like that of a colocynth
