Hypocrisy and the sickness of the heart.
0:12
Hypocrisy is considered one of the most serious and dangerous diseases of the heart.
0:16
Whether it is major hypocrisy related to belief,
0:20
Or minor hypocrisy related to actions.
0:23
These are the two types that were previously detailed in the concepts of creed.
0:29
What concerns us here,
0:31
Is explaining that hypocrisy is among the most dangerous diseases of the heart,
0:35
To the extent that you will hardly find a verse in the Book of Allah that mentions heart disease,
0:41
Without it being in the context of discussing hypocrisy and its people,
0:46
Whether the term hypocrisy is mentioned explicitly or not.
0:51
Among those where the term is mentioned explicitly,
0:54
Is the saying of Allah the Exalted:
0:56
“When the hypocrites and those in whose hearts is a disease said: Their religion hath deluded these. Whoso putteth his trust in Allah (will find that) lo! Allah is Mighty, Wise.” (8:49)
1:04
And His saying the Exalted:
1:06
“And when the hypocrites, and those in whose hearts is a disease, were saying: Allah and His messenger promised us naught but delusion.” (33:12)
1:15
And among those where the term hypocrisy is not mentioned,
1:19
Is the saying of Allah the Exalted:
1:21
“In their hearts is a disease, and Allah increaseth their disease. A painful doom is theirs because they lie.” (2:10)
1:26
“In their hearts is a disease, and Allah increaseth their disease. A painful doom is theirs because they lie.” (2:10)
1:31
And His saying the Exalted:
1:33
“And thou seest those in whose heart is a disease race toward them, saying: We fear lest a change of fortune befall us. And it may happen that Allah will vouchsafe (unto thee) the victory, or a commandment from His presence. Then will they repent them of their secret thoughts.” (5:52)
1:42
The conflict between the hypocrites and the people of truth is not a disagreement over a single intellectual issue;
1:49
Rather, their faculty of judgment is based on a sick and infirm heart.
1:55
For in their hearts is a disease.
