Excerpt from Mr. Adnan Oktar's Live Conversation on A9TV dated November 16^th, 2016

ADNAN OKTAR: God says in the 167th verse of Surah Al Imran; "They said, ‘If we knew how to fight, we would certainly follow you.’ They were closer to irreligion that day than to faith, saying with their mouths what was not in their hearts." This is what hypocrites always say, "I do not know what to do. I do not know how to serve Islam, please show me how." Do you ask for help when you carry out hypocritical deeds? Do you ask for help when you communicate with the irreligious? Do you ask for help when you commit treachery? Do you ask for help when you devise cunning, fiendish plans? You do not. It is quite easier to serve Islam. When compared to your immoral, malicious deeds, it is far easier to serve Islam. Even teaching someone a verse of the Quran is a blessing. Teaching someone a truth of faith is a blessing. For example, even telling someone about the beauty of a bird is a blessing, or telling the structure of an atom. Even researching into it is a blessing. Besides, science in its entirety is about Islam, about the beauty of God. Science has now become a system that directly serves Islam. It was priorly utilized for the benefit of irreligion. But God has now turned it into a system that only serves Islam. He changed the course of science towards God. Right now science brings to mind a system that serves the benefit of Islam. Because every scientific discovery reveals another miracle. Every research brings to light another wonder of God. And hypocrites are of the mentality that "If we had known, we would have helped you, we would have served Islam." In other words, this is a means to identify hypocrites. This is one of the issues that hypocrites complain about the most. The Quran strongly emphasizes this fact.

Of course, this does not make a person a hundred percent hypocrite; it is not upon us to identify a person as hypocrite. We only see the signs of hypocrisy. We can never dub someone a hypocrite. But we can see the distinct signs of hypocrisy. In other words, people may show its signs. For that reason, rather than identifying people as hypocrites, we can only point out the signs of hypocrisy they exhibit.
