Summary
There is a hadith narrated by Abu Hurairah in Sahih al-Bukhari, Sahih Muslim and Musnad Ahmad that mentions the two-faced person as among the worst of people. However, it does not state that such a person will come on the Day of Judgement with two faces from hell. Imam al-Nawawi explains that this conduct is hypocrisy, lying and deceit, and that such two-facedness is forbidden.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Namun dalam hadis tersebut tidak dinyatakan bahawa orang yang bersikap dengan sikap talam dua muka, di akhirat kelak dia akan datang dengan dua muka daripada neraka kerana sikapnya di dunia sedemikian.
