Hypocrites always try to stand out around others. They try to patronize others. They are know-it-alls who want to win at everything. They always want to be right. Their behavior can be considered maniacal, in a sense.

Hypocrites despise Muslims as they consider themselves superior. They consider themselves wise and intelligent. They think of themselves as "magnificent" creatures that are way ahead of Muslims. However, Almighty God does not agree with them in this regard. So, as the hypocrites are weak-minded, they are not aware of it and ultimately become disgraceful.

Connections are really important for a hypocrite. Thus, they constantly try to make friends out of disbelievers, tricksters and foul people. They believe, on the off chance of them becoming lonely in the future, that these people will provide them with employment and food.

Believers make a name for themselves through God, through their faith, Islam, and the Qur'an. Hypocrites try to make a name for themselves through idle actions. They do not realize they are debasing themselves with unworthy actions and continue to do so.

Hypocrites are foolish in every aspect but when they are possessed by satan, their evil souls emerge. For example, if they get in touch with people outside the Muslim community, they begin to write, talk and commit foul deeds in a swift manner. They excel at hiding themselves. But they achieve all these things with the help of the wisdom they obtain from satan. Otherwise, they are like planks of wood in every way.

The hypocrite is a devil who tries to destroy Muslims from within by joining them. It is the most foul, most treacherous specimen of humanity and it is not possible to contend with hypocrites with an average level of intelligence. They can only be contended with through the guidance of the prophets and the depth of authority. Otherwise, hypocrites are clever and merciless. They have incredible means and are quite diabolical.

Suffering is a necessity for achieving the love of God. Satan must exist in order for suffering to exist. And satan usually engages hypocrites and disbelievers for its deeds.

Hypocrites communicate with disbelievers, but believers do not know about this. They exchange information with disbelievers, but believers are not aware of this. They use cryptic texts disguised as a poem or a prose, but believers cannot comprehend it. All of these actions lead the hypocrites to have a delusion of superiority. We should decipher it, break their codes; they are neutralized when their codes are deciphered.

Hypocrites feel as if their souls burn and suffer when they feel they are becoming more like Muslims. Thus, they try to inspire their evil natures by committing indecent, treacherous deeds, by keeping in touch with disbelievers, or by hatching insidious plots against Muslims.

Hypocrites find comfort in tapping into their evil sides. They feel obliged to commit vile, secret, dishonest deeds, to hatch sinister plots; their souls can find no rest otherwise.

Hypocrites are impudent and dishonest people. No matter how often you warn them to be honest, to be transparent, they will only adhere to their villainous ways. They will continue their secret activities. It is a manic illness that afflicts the hypocrites.

Hypocrites profess to be superior in this world. They become spoiled and go astray; however in the afterlife, in the Presence of God, they will have no strength left in them to act like a snob, a know-it-all, a pseudo-intellectual, a sneak.

Occasionally, Muslims with a sickness in their hearts might act like a hypocrite. They are not hypocrites per se, but they have a sickness in their hearts; God informs us of this in a verse of the Qur'an, saying, "They have sickness in their hearts." They act in the exact manner of a hypocrite. This is a phase they are going through. Sometimes they recover from it, and sometimes they succumb to the disease that is hypocrisy.

Secrecy is the primary weapon of a hypocrite. His primary weapon becomes neutralized if his characteristics and his activities can be exposed.

Hypocrites deem general culture important, wish to learn about everything and hate religion. The only thing that irritates them is religion, Islam.

In the era of Our Prophet (pbuh), the then- hypocrites pretended to be wiser than Our Prophet; as they believed themselves to be supposedly wiser, they talked in a patronizing manner. Hypocrites are insolent and disrespectful.

Our Prophet (pbuh) says in the hadith, "Most of the hypocrites in my community are from among well-educated people." Knowledge leads them astray and into a desire to be apart from Muslims. Feeling a sense of superiority, hypocrites seek to abandon Muslims, thinking, "I am wiser and smarter."

The hypocrite has an innate desire to leave. In his book 'Ihya' ulum al-din', Imam al-Ghazzali states, "The hypocrite inside a mosque is like a bird inside a cage. When the door of the cage is opened, the bird flies away."

Muslims look forward to the hypocrite leaving them in peace but as soon as he leaves, another one comes along. The hypocrite is a necessity and is significant for worship. It is just that people should know the Qur'an method well to be able to deal with them effectively.

It is dangerous to let your guard down against the hypocrite threat. People must be ever-vigilant against hypocrites because a hypocrite is like sticky tar. The moment you get rid of one of them, another one appears. There is no Muslim community that is free from hypocrites.

A hypocrite is not alone. When he abandons Muslims, he turns to an already available hypocrite community. A hypocrite always has a crew that will watch over him and look after him but he hates them as much as they hate him.

The most distinguishing characteristic of hypocrites is their desire to stand out. They want to attribute any achievement to themselves, not to the Prophet (pbuh). Or they don't want to attribute success to Muslims’ leader of that era, they only arrogate it to themselves. They are only after their own glory and reputation.

Hypocrites gather foul things: In other words, they do not seek anything regarding the faith or the Qur'an. They go after anything that is snobbish, sneaky, anything that will help them make a name for themselves among the disbelievers, anything that will help them prove themselves to other hypocrites. They prioritize their own promotion by doing so

Intelligence means money for hypocrites. Hypocrites are treacherous people that live on selling information regarding Muslims.

The head hypocrite of the Prophet Moses’ (pbuh) era, the Samiri, lived and died in loneliness. No hypocrite dies in a happy, contented manner. They always die miserably, in a corner, in the foulest of ways.
