faith in their hearts, the information they have, just helped them transform into a
'donkey carrying tomes'; and they have driven themselves into failure not only on
earth, but also in the hereafter due to their lack of faith.
Hazrat Omar (ra) also describes this feature of hypocrites as such:
Hazrat Omar (ra) once said "What I fear most about this community are hyp-
ocrites who have knowledge" and thus he mentioned his concerns about hyp-
ocrites. When asked "What is a hypocrite with knowledge?", he replies as such:
"Their knowledge is in their speech but not in their hearts and deeds!" (Ramuz
al-Ahadith, Ahmad Diya ad-Din al-Kamushkhanawi, p. 113)

ADNAN OKTAR: Our Prophet (pbuh) says: "They are
well educated". Among the well-educated, there are
of course people who are believers and true devotees
of God, but he says the common feature of hypocrites
is that they are well educated. Yet, as our Lord likens

them in the Qur'an "of a donkey loaded with weighty

tomes" (Surat al-Jumua, 5). They are intested in vain

information. Hypocrites do not wish to have Qur'anic
knowledge. They hate the Qur'an. They hate matters
of faith. They never wish to learn them. Yet, when
there is an empty information, they want to learn it so
that they can show off. They aspire to be called
scholars. The satan is also a scholar. For instance,
satan has an immense knowledge about the world.

Thus, hypocrites are also well educated but they use what they know to spread

immorality and evil, make a show, feel proud and feed their ego.They get in touch

with those who are empty-headed among the unbelievers. Just like the donkeys
carrying tomes mentioned in the Holy Qur'an, such as Abu Jahl, etc. They were all
intellectuals of that period. It is explained in great detail in the Surat al-Muddaththir
of the Holy Qur'an. They give the Qur'an to a hypocrite so that he can study the
knowledge inside. He is a hypocrite. He calls himself 'Muslim' but actually he is a
hypocrite. He is very well educated and he has a very cunning intellect. He reads
the Qur'an, he understands the miracle of the number 19 in the Holy Qur'an. He
understands the system behind it. Although he understands the miracle; although
he comprehends it; he denies it. He says 'This is a book written by man'.(A9 TV,
