THE PROFOUND DARKNESS OF THE HYPOCRITE

telling that 'they travelled around the world and lived a luxurious life in the US,
the UK, France and so on and ate several kinds of food in restaurants and visited
many locations'. But in truth, they had been humiliated whereever they went and
had spent days in the most difficult conditions to find some money, food and acco-
modation. However, due to their cunning nature, hypocrites change all the facts
with hypothetical details and foolish lies, and talk about them as if they were fancy
events with which they could show off.
Of course, Muslims who have sharp minds realize that hypocrites are indeed
fond of showing off. Their admiration and fondness for the unbelievers are unearthed
when they try to make a name for themselves not through their pious character,
fear of God, good morals and faith, but through factors of earthly superiority that
are of no importance. And as a result, Muslims realize the failure in the morality
and behaviour of these people who live among them but have an aspiration to live
among unbelivers.

Despite living together with Muslims, hypocrites secretly admire the lives of

unbelievers. As a result, they yearn very much for anything they have in their lives.

Hypocrites admire anything that is trending in the world of unbelievers. They try

to mimic the lives of the unbelievers by keeping a record of the places they have

been and seen, the way they decorate their accomodations, the people they see,

the connections they make, the books they read, the shows they watch, the TV

series they are fond of, the songs they listen to, the language they use, the

snobbish tone they adopt, the clothes they wear, the food they eat, the newspapers

they read, the websites they surf and so on.

They closely monitor what the unbelievers share on the well-known and the

most popular websites such as Instagram, Facebook and Twitter and they try to

imitate their social media styles. For instance; when there is a "selfie" trend, they

try to imitate the way they pose and upload similar photos. When the unbelievers

share a picture of their dinner plate at a famous restaurant; hypocrites do the

same with a similar pose and share it on their page. If the unbelievers order 'fried

goat tongue'; hypocrites share a photo with a text saying 'And I ate a Japanese style

goat tongue' in order to look superior than them. Their purpose is not to eat it be-

cause of its beautiful taste, but to draw attention and look as if they were their

equals.

Surely, people are 'free to steer their lives as they wish'. They have a right to

go anywhere they desire, eat each kind of food, have their photos taken as they
