Hypocrites want others to feel their so-called greatness, they are after an artificial prestige. That is why they try to give the impression they are living by religion and pretend that they are devout Muslims. While doing that they regard themselves greater than – may God forbid the thought- the prophets and God. What is weird about the hypocrites is that they devote all their time to struggle against Muslims instead of going and joining the unbelievers and living with them. They become enemies of the Prophet and the loyal companions of the Prophet. They carry out activities against Muslims day in and day out and they even risk death. But while struggling against Muslims, the hypocrites constantly waste away. Since satan has gotten hold of them, they are very restless, like mad cows they do not know what to do where to strike. That is why even unbelievers do not approach them. - Harun Yahya
