Hypocrites are 'treacherous self-seekers and profiteers.' They try to get their
works done by Muslims without any sign of shame or embarrassment. They try to
tie up heavy and cumbersome burdens on Muslims' shoulders while they don't
even move a finger for these burdens. For instance, if there is something to be
carried, they just say 'Would you bring this?' Even if they don't have any excuse
they want other people to do their work in order 'not to get tired and lose their
comfort'. They even consider this kind of vileness and any act of immorality as
a benefit in their imposter minds. If they are asked, "Why don't you bring it
yourself?" then they will tell lies such as "Because I have a disease" or "My ankle
hurts."
However it is very clear that if an unbeliever he considers important, asked
the hypocrite to do something, he would never mention things like ankle pain
or another disease. Even when they don't want anything from him and there is an
opportunity for him to get in people's good books, he would forwardly help them
with an incredible energy out of the blue and would not ask anything in return. If it
is needed he would tucker himself out in the most steeply way and not have any
complaints.
Two totally opposite moral values he shows towards unbelievers and Mus-
lims, is a brief summary of hypocrite. When it is about Muslims he pacifies his
whole body, doesn't have any energy, when he should serve for Islam he escapes
with excuses and stands behind and hopes to live his entire life abusing Muslims'
financial and moral opportunities and getting himself looked after by them; whereas
when it comes to ingratiating himself to irreligiousness, he has an unceasing power
and energy.
However, there is an 'important secret' here. Hypocrites think that they are
very 'vigilant and incredibly lucrative with their ruses'. They do not notice it but
the calamity surrounds them all over both in this world and the hereafter. As they
continue fraud, insidiousness and affectedness, God darkens their heart, soul and
world inwardly. As they pursuit baseness, immorality and hypocrisy, God fills their
world with troubles, nuisances, pain and distress.

Another part of the seeing himself and his body very precious philosophy of
the hypocrite is 'the fear he direfully has from getting old and death'. It is a well
known fact by both believers and unbelievers that life in this world is not permanent;
