With the words, "... those who listen to lies, listening to other people who
have not come to you." (Surat al-Ma'ida, 41), God informs us in the verse of the
Qur'an that one of the most significant characteristics of hypocrites is 'to secretly
gather intelligence from Muslims and convey it to their friends among the irre-
ligious'. By mentioning of the ones "who have not come to you", God informs us
that hypocrites blend in among the believers in order to 'gather intelligence on
behalf of those who have no connection with, who do not keep in touch with
Muslims'.
So, in our century, hypocrites 'convey the information they have gathered
regarding Muslims to their friends among the irreligious by means of the Inter-
net, computer technologies and smart phones'. When they are among Muslims,
they sneakily and treacherously get in touch with unbelievers in dark and isolated
places to carry out their insidious activities to the detriment of Muslims.
In another verse of the Qur'an, God informs us about the connection between
hypocrites and unbelievers, saying "... The satans inspire their friends to dispute
with you..." (Surat al-An'am, 121). So, in our century, hypocrites carry out such
ruses via advanced communication devices. This way, as explained in the verse,
they 'secretly inspire' their real friends, unbelievers. They make such attempts at
secretly sending for their friends 'by utilizing the technological means of our
century, through computer chats over the Internet, a wide range of messaging
programs available on smart phones, or social networking sites such as Twitter,
Facebook and Instagram.' Through the high speed of the Internet, hypocrites
can reach their friends among the irreligious and other hypocrites considerably
more easily and quickly as well as get in touch with the members of the deep
state even at the far end of the world with ease. After that, again in a very quick
way, hypocrites can convey the information they gather against Muslims to their
friends from unbelievers and discuss with them their plans that they believe
can harm the Muslims.
Thinking that they are able to do all these behind Muslims' back without them
noticing, hypocrites 'feel an impassioned and evil pleasure'. Secretly communi-
cating with unbelievers, listening to their philosophies, partaking in their irre-
ligious mentality, giving them the snobbish responses they desire; these are like
evil nourishment for the souls of hypocrites, so to speak. In a way, it is an evil
craving of hypocrites to carry a message, even if it is insignificant, to another hyp-
