THE PROFOUND DARKNESS OF THE HYPOCRITE
hypocrites, because, under these circumstances, they cannot escape from the in-
formation they try hard to avoid; and they have to reluctantly read about all
kinds of religious subjects they loathe to see or hear about.
And the solution hypocrites come up with for this is to 'gradually and slyly
unfriend or unfollow the Muslims on their friend list.' Sometimes they are not
content with this and due to their anger, they 'block' Muslims' accounts. However,
in case what they do is noticed or attracts attention, hypocrites also have evil excuses
they have prepared in advance for such situations. They either claim that a glitch
in the system of the Internet automatically removed these people from friends
without any interference on their part; or they try to defend themselves by strik-
ing back claiming it is the other side who has unfriended them. However, although
such allegations are lies, since it is technically impossible to refute them, hypocrites
manage to fulfill their insidious schemes.
One of the reasons hypocrites do not want any Muslims on their friend lists
is that they do not want to give their friends among unbelievers the impression
that they are on Muslims' side. When people take a look at their followers' lists
thinking "I wonder whom does this person follow?" hypocrites want them 'to see
the prominent individuals from unbelievers that they can use to show off to
their unbeliever friends.' Hypocrites want to show that, if the number of the Mus-
lims and unbelievers on their followers' lists are to be compared, the number of the
Muslims is only a handful while unbelievers are on the majority.
Muslims are surely aware of such schemes of hypocrites and what they try to
accomplish through them. However, it should not be forgotten that by not sharing
posts about Islam, hypocrites can never prevent Islam from spreading and people
from flocking into the good moral values of the Qur'an in multitudes.
This attitude of hypocrites reminds us of an ostrich with its head buried in
the sand. Through such ploys, hypocrites only succeed in preventing themselves
from seeing the spread of Islam. But on the other hand, through genuine efforts
of the Muslims and by means of the posts they share, tens of thousands of people
see through the schemes of unbelievers and hypocrites, and begin to abide by
the tenets of Islam.

The Internet is one of the greatest blessings that God creates in the End
Times. Social media is a very favorable tool for elucidating the beauties of the
moral values of the Qur'an, making new friends, spreading Muslim morality to
