Excerpt from Mr. Adnan Oktar's Live Conversation on A9TV dated January 8th, 2018

ADNAN OKTAR: Hypocrites' most prominent quality is that people purposefully avoid them like fleeing from sewage. They wonder around in groups of a handful of people like a pack of stray dogs. Everyone despise them. God states in the Qur'an that this is His punishment for hypocrites. "In this world you will have to say, 'Untouchable!' And you will live in solitude." This is a characteristic of hypocrites. Looking at the hypocrites of our century, one will see that people avoid them like the plague; they lead solitary lives like lone dogs. Hypocrites also go into a shock out of their extremely shameless personality. This is stated in the Qur'an as God calls them "despicable." Do you know what this means. It means that their shamelessness reaches such a level that they lose any sense of shame and dignity. They would be unfazed even if the entire world spit on their face. Their brains have become numb. Hypocrites go insane due to the severity of their shamelessness and they are unfazed by anything. Neither verses of the Qur'an, nor what humiliating things people say about them affect them. Their brains become completely numb. This is what despicable means. They reach the highest level of dishonesty, shamelessness, immorality, dishonor and ignominy. And ultimately, their brains are blocked out. Normally, a person would feel ashamed and humiliated when someone spits on him, right? This is not the case with hypocrites. Their lack of shame reaches incredible heights. Mind you that they maintain these characteristics in hell as well. They tell Muslims, "Throw down some water to us or some of what God has given you as provision." Hypocrites have all negative qualities such as impertinence, insolence, fiendishness, villainy, dishonesty. However, in their shocked state caused by their immorality, they stop being human and reach the highest rank of evil. Hypocrites attain the highest rank of evil. Both satan and believers elevate their own status. Hypocrisy is the highest rank of satan, it is the zenith of satan's status. Because satan is not very effective in the jinni form, but he attains the highest rank in the form of hypocrite. The hypocrites of the End Times are the ones that attain the highest possible rank. Since they enjoy ampler opportunities, their rank is the highest. Taking a closer look at hypocrites, one will realize that they are in a state of shock caused by their lack of shame. Their brains have basically become numb; they remain unfazed no matter what they are told. Even insulting them and spitting in their face do not affect them at all. They become the type of person that we call impudent.

SEDAT ALTAN: "His metaphor is that of a dog: if you chase it away, it lolls out its tongue and pants, and if you leave it alone, it lolls out its tongue and pants." (Surah al-A'raf, 176)

ADNAN OKTAR: The verse describes hypocrites perfectly, in that chasing them away even with a stick in hand does not have any effect on them whatsoever. They simply pant with an empty expression on their face like a dog. It is this state of shock that the Qur'an points out. Hypocrites' brains become numb under constant humiliation. Since they are despised by all, combined with the fact that they attain the highest rank of evil in a state of shock caused by their loneliness and lack of humanity, their brains and conscience effectively shot down.

SEDAT ALTAN: Mr. Adnan, in a verse, God commands, "It is as if their faces were covered by dark patches of the night. (Surah Yunus, 27).

ADNAN OKTAR: Indeed, hypocrites' faces are as dark as the night.

In Surah al-Qalam, Almighty God says: "But do not obey any vile swearer of oaths... (Surah al-Qalam, 10) Characteristically, hypocrites always mention God in their conversations. "Vileness" is also a hypocrite quality. "...any backbiter..."Hypocrites nonstop talk behind and speak ill of Muslims. Backbiting Muslims day and night becomes their only pursuit. God points this fact out explicitly in the verse. "...any backbiter..."They make an effort to badmouth Muslims and present them in a negative light,"...slandermonger..."(Surah al-Qalam). They always carry gossip from one person to another and from there to someone else. "...impeder of good..."For example, hypocrites try to impede any effort believers make against Darwinism, or for preaching the religion. They try to impede any effort for preaching the truths of faith and the miracles of the Qur'an, They try to impede any effort against the British deep state. They try to impede any effort that aims to call people on the true path. They try to impede any effort towards establishing the Islamic Unity and appointing a leader to guide Muslims. Hypocrites are "impeder of good," that is, they strive to hamper every good deed. "...evil aggressor"(Surah al-Qalam). Hypocrites are prone to all sorts of aggressive deeds such as bodily harm and murder as they have now attained the highest rank evil. "...gross, coarse…" Hypocrites are gross and utterly rude, “...and furthermore, despicable...” This is a perfect depiction of hypocrites. Constant humiliation benumbs hypocrites, which is an astonishing quality. They may be smiling or grinning, but they only do so because their faces and brains having gone numb; they basically become mindless minions of hell with benumbed expressions and brains. Due to constant humiliation, ostracization, loneliness, sinfulness and the certainty that they will end up in hell make their brains go haywire. In time, this situation even worsens to the point that their brains become unable to think any of these thoughts either.  God says in the verse that hypocrites "may appear united" but "are actually scattered," adding that "they are always hostile and full of bravado against each other." (Surah al Hashr, 14) And their unity is usually in the form of a small group of handful of hypocrites. But "even with few numbers, they are unable to unite," says God, "as they are full of hostility and bravado against each other." They indeed bicker and fight like dogs.
