💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 11 Signs of hypocrites - people who aren't really Muslims but pretend to be so, concealing disbelief in their hearts while appearing to be outwardly religious, with an agenda to cause problems among Muslim communities or they aim to give Islam a negative image:
1] Their good deeds, like praying or acting as though they're performing Salah, are usually done to gain people's praise, or to portray that they're Muslims when in reality they don't even accept the Shahaada.
2] Because they don't actually believe in Allah the Almighty, they seldom remember Him. The only times they mention Allah's Names, such as saying "MashaAllah" and "Alhamdulillah", is when some Muslims are nearby listening.
3] They don't bother praying on time and doing wudhu/ablution correctly. If they're the only ones in a public bathroom, they do ablution deliberately in a wrong manner (quick splashes of water here and there without proper niyyah/intention). They refuse to carry out their duties and responsibilities to Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala, so long as they're not being observed by others. For instance, they may claim they're "fasting", but they eat and drink in their homes when Muslims aren't observing.
4] They are known for being deceitful, dishonest and untrustworthy. Keeping promises or at least trying to be trustworthy is something they don't take seriously.
5] As chronic liars or betrayers, they are very careless with their words. Gossip, fallacious rumors, untruthful jokes, false accusations and unreliable ideas are examples of verbal nonsense that they're into.
6] Since they don't fear Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala, their lack of Taqwa leads them to feeling comfortable with telling lies on purpose, stealing, and deceiving others.
7] The only thing that makes them appear to be "Muslim" is wearing an Islamic clothing when outdoors (especially thobe for males and jilbaab or niqab for females). Or they insincerely declare that they support Islam when they've been plotting against Muslims since day one of interacting with them.
8] In order to conceal their reality, they quickly accuse others of disbelief, deviance, misguidance, hypocrisy and unreliability before someone can reveal their true colors.
9] Seeing how they aren't genuine Muslims, at least not yet, they do not value saying Dhikr and Du'a at all. Until they've embraced Islam truthfully from their hearts, saying Du'a and Adhkaar, as well as reading from the Noble Qur'an, are deeds they don't regard as important... unless a number of Muslims are surveying them. They're more likely to use a copy of the Noble Qur'an as mere decoration somewhere in their house rather than reading the Qur'an regularly for Allah's sake.
10] With causing fitna or inviting disruption to peaceful Muslim communities as one of their goals, they enjoy getting into arguments, encouraging Muslims to debate, and doing whatever they can to divide the Muslims. They'd rather be up all night debating vehemently with online users than praying Tahajjud / Qiyaam Al-Layl.
11] The eloquent "Islamic lectures", Islamic posts they occasionally share online, and what they sometimes call to contradict with their actual beliefs and actions done away from spectators. They don't make effort to practice what they preach, and even if they do some religious tasks visibly at times, they are not consistent or an ounce bit sincere.
