The hypocrites under the psychology perspective

????? ??????????????? ??? ????????? ??????????? ???? ???????? {??????: 145}

Indeed, the hypocrites are in the lowest level of the Fire. {An-Nisa: 145}

They are the most vile of the infidels, the most hateful to God Almighty, and the most abhorrent to Him because they mixed disbelief with disguise and deception, and polytheism is mockery and deception

They deceit

Allah says

?? ????????? ??????? ???? ??? ?????? ???? ????? ??? ?????? ????? ????? ?????? ????? ??? ?????? ???? ??? ????? ??????? ??? ??? ?? ??? ????? ??? ??? ????? ??? ???? ???? ??? ??? ?? ?????

The hypocrites deceive God and He deceives them, and when they stand up to pray, they stand up lazy, they show off to people and do not mention God except a little, oscillating between that, neither to these nor to those, whoever God leads astray, you will not find a way for him

The meaning

God Almighty tells us about the hypocrites because of their ugly qualities and hideous characteristics, and that their way is to deceive God Almighty, meaning: because of the faith they displayed and hidden disbelief, they thought that he was promoting God but did not know it or reveal it to His servants, but the situation is that God is deceiving them, The mere fact that they exist in this state and act according to it is deceiving themselves. What deception is greater than one who pursues a quest that will bring him humiliation, and deprivation?

The idea of deception

It lies in solitude: in solitude comes laziness, and in meeting with people comes activity (hypocrisy). Oscillation between these and those, i.e. believers and unbelievers, indicates a loss of sincerity, and God is Most High and All-Knowing.

The psychology behind deception

The Nature of Deception

Deception, the act of deliberately conveying false information, is a fundamental component of human interaction. It serves various purposes ranging from

self-preservation

maintaining social bonds to gaining personal advantages

protecting one's self-image.

In the realm of psychology, deception provides a fascinating insight into the complex web of cognitive, emotional, and social factors that drive individuals to conceal, manipulate, and fabricate information.

The Cognitive Processes

Lying is not a simple act; it involves intricate cognitive processes. The brain must first generate the false information, then suppress the truth, and finally present the lie convincingly. This cognitive load can lead to noticeable changes in behavior, such as increased stress, altered speech patterns, and subtle nonverbal cues. Research suggests that detecting deception involves analyzing microexpressions, inconsistencies in speech, and changes in body language.

They show off

Allah says

???? ????? ??? ?????? ????? ????? ?????? ????? ??? ?????? ???? ??? ?????

And when they stand up for prayer, they stand up lazily, showing off to people, and they do not remember God except a little

The meaning of the verse

It mention in the previous photo

The psychology of people who show off

The idea of showing off

It is necessary to be present in a group, as you will not show off yourself, of course, but as a group of believers, so that you are socially accepted in their midst, so you improve and perfect your prayers, and your charitable deeds are open, and you will hardly have any hidden space between you and God - the Almighty - May God protect us and being expelled from the group is better for us than worship that pleases the group but does not satisfy the Lord of the Worlds

Reasons behind showing off

when they think that others don’t consider them important will they try to prove that they’re important, If you know that you’re great, you don’t feel a strong need to tell anyone about it. They should already know. However, if you think that they don’t know you’re great, then you’ll have to make efforts to display your greatness, A martial arts master will never challenge you for a fight or show off his skills. He knows he’s a master. A beginner, however, will show off greatly and challenge anybody he can. He wants to prove to others, and to himself, that he’s good because he isn’t sure whether he’s good or not.

Showing off during hard times

While everyone may show off every once in a while (normal human behaviour), you should watch out for people who show off constantly. This may be indicative of a deeper issue.

Childhood experiences

Our childhood experiences shape many of our adult behaviours. We try to replicate our favourable childhood experiences when we’re adults, In other words, they still seek attention but use other subtle ways. In childhood, they just had to cry or jump up and down to gain attention but as adults, they find more socially acceptable ways to do that.

Accept me

A showy person usually doesn’t show off in front of everyone but only in front of those whom they’re trying to impress. If a person likes someone, then they’re likely to show off in front of them to gain their love and acceptance. I can confidently assume that you know at least one person who likes to say great things about himself in front of you but not others. The reality is- he just wants you to like him because he likes you.

What are the types of things that a person usually shows off?

The type of things that reinforce a particular identity that the person likes about himself. If a person has an identity of, say, an intellectual i.e. he sees himself as an intellectual, then he’ll definitely show off things that reinforce this identity.

Final words

If you really are amazing and if you believe others also consider you amazing, then you won’t need to prove it. We only show off when we think that others are evaluating us negatively or when we are in need of attention. Show off is just your mind’s attempt to improve your image and you will only try to improve your image if you think there’s something wrong with it.

They wavering in the faith

Allah says

( ??????? ??? ??? ?? ??? ????? ??? ??? ????? ??? ???? ???? ??? ??? ?? ????? ( 143 ) )

(?Wavering between that, neither to these nor to these. And whoever God sends astray, you will never find a way for him. (143))

The origin of "oscillation", movement and disturbance

The meaning of the verse

But God meant by that: The hypocrites are confused about their religion, they do not return to believing anything as true, for they are neither with the believers on insight, nor with the polytheists on ignorance, but they are confused between that, Their example is the example that the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, set for them, which: Muhammad bin Al-Muthanna told us, he said: Abdul Wahhab told us, he said: Ubayd Allah told us, on the authority of Nafi’, On the authority of Ibn Umar, on the authority of the Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, he said: The example of a hypocrite is that of a sheep that strays between two sheep, It is lent to this time, and to this time, it doesn't know which one to follow.

The idea of oscillation

Confusion between two matters, especially in faith and disbelief, stems from not believing the idea about which you are confused enough. A mind that is convinced and filled with an idea talks about it and then becomes more convinced of it, and so on. As for someone who hesitates about an idea, he hardly mentions it and even flees from it.?He faced himself with hesitation and hesitation as a sign of internal conflict, and God is Most High and Most Knowing.

Why do people hesitate?

There is an unseen struggle that lies in all of us at some level.

Why would someone hesitate even though they know they should move in a certain direction in order to reach their goals?

The fact that you might not be aware of is that hesitation happens when an unconscious conflict develops!! This means that hesitation is caused by the development of two opposite beliefs even if one of them was not apparent to you, sometimes an unconscious belief can take control over your decisions even if you were not aware of it. hesitating is based on fear, fear can be the belief that we are not good enough or smart enough at some level. We can feel that if we move forward that this lack of expertise or knowledge will be exposed.

They mention God a little

Allah says

????? ??????????? ??????? ?????? ???????? (142) ??????

And they do not mention Allah except a little. (142) An-Nisa’

In their prayer they do not submit [in it] and do not know what they are saying. Rather, in their prayer they are careless, and turn away from what is intended for them of good.

The idea of little remembrance of God - the Almighty -

It is said that he who loves someone more than mentions him all times, this is in general, if you love God, you will remember him frequently, and it is said that he who says the morning and evening remembrances or supplications for entering the house and the market and other than the mentioned remembrances, then this characteristic has been removed from him, and here the scholars teach us that remembrance Within the prayer, and in the effect (You have nothing from your prayer except what you have understood) meaning, your mind has been present with it, and God is Most High and Most Knowing.

How Love Impacts Your Mental Health

Love, attachment, and affection have an important impact on well-being and quality of life. Loving relationships have been linked to:

Lower risk of heart disease

Decreased risk of dying after a heart attack7

Better health habits

Increased longevity8

Lower stress levels

Less depression9

Lower risk of diabetes10

And the true love for God has these benefits, so maybe He - The Almighty - wanted from us a lot of remmeberance Him for this reason, and God is superior and know the best.

They swearing without request

Allah says

?????????? ????????????? ??????? ????????? ??? ??????? ??????? ? ????????? ????? ??? ??????? ??????????? (2)

They used their oaths as a protection, and turned away the people from the path of God, Indeed, the evil what they used to do(2)

Beware of people with false oaths and sinful oaths, so that they will be true to what they say, so be deceived by them who do not know the clarity of their matter, They believed that they were Muslims, so perhaps he followed them in what they did and believed in what they said, and they were of the same nature as they were inwardly, they do not like Islam and its people, and this has caused great harm to many people. Mujahid said: Taqiyyah means they avoid killing.

The idea of swearing

without a request When do you swear strong oaths??Mostly in two cases: 1 - You are not believed, so you want to swear an oath to increase your credibility, 2 - You are a liar and you want to change the point of view of the person in front of you in order to save your face in front of him because you are afraid of him, and it is said in the hadith or narrations (Whoever swears an oath without swearing an oath is a liar)

The psychology of the oath

Considering that getting along in civil society is based on the expectation that (most) people will do what they say they will do, i.e., essentially live up to their explicit or implicit promises, it is amazing that so little scientific attention has been given to the act of promising. A great deal of research has been done on the moral development of children, for example, but not on the child’s ability to make and keep a promise, one of the highest moral achievements. What makes it possible developmentally, cognitively, and emotionally to make a promise in the first place? And on the other hand, what compels one to keep a promise (or vow or threat) when there seems to be no personal advantage in doing so, and even when harm can be predicted?

Their words are sweat

Allah says

????? ????????? ???????? ????????????

And if they say, you listen to what they say

They were beautiful, eloquent, and articulate, and if the listener heard them, he would listen to what they said due to their eloquence, yet they were extremely weak, frightened, alarmed, and cowardly.

The idea of good conversation

As it is said in the narration (Indeed, the statement is somehow of a magic) There are people who are very eloquent because their sentences are short and carry a lot of meaning, they influence your hearing and take hold of your mind, and this is one of the characteristics of hypocrites, their speech is sweet and you like to hear it, but this does not mean that everyone who has audible speech means that he is a hypocrite, unless several other characteristics are present along with this characteristic, so the concern lies here.

The Personality Trait That Makes People Feel Comfortable Around You

People with positive “affective presence” are easy to be around and oil the gears of social interactions.

Some people can walk into a room and instantly put everyone at ease. Others seem to make teeth clench and eyes roll no matter what they do. A small body of psychology research supports the idea that the way a person tends to make others feel is a consistent and measurable part of his personality. Researchers call it “affective presence.”

It’s been known for some time that emotions are contagious: If one person feels angry, she may well infect her neighbor with that anger. But affective presence is an effect one has regardless of one’s own feelings—those with positive affective presence make other people feel good, even if they personally are anxious or sad, and the opposite is true for those with negative affective presence.

They rejoice in the misfortune of the believers

Allah says

?? ??? ???????? ???????? ?????????? ????? ???????? ????????? ????????? ???? ????????? ????????? ??? ?????? ????????????? ??????? ????????? ??

“If good befalls you, you will do them harm, and if a calamity befalls you, they say, “We took our command before,” and they turn away, rejoicing.

“If a good deed befalls you, O Muhammad, in the form of victory, blessing, or spoils - as happened on the day of Badr - that good deed will harm them and cause them grief and distress, Because of the intensity of their hostility towards you and your companions, “And if a calamity befalls you” of defeat or hardship - as happened on the day of Uhud - “they say” with arrogance, amazement, and gloating, “We have taken our command”;?That is, we have avoided what concerns us regarding the command to be firm and vigilant, before the calamity that befell the Muslims occurred, and we did not throw ourselves into destruction as these Muslims did, “And they turn away rejoicing”: a depiction of their condition, and the gloating they were made to feel about the Muslims.?that is: when a calamity befalls Muslims, These hypocrites go to their families and Shiites - with joy filling their wings - to give them good news of the calamity that has befallen the Muslims.

The idea of the gloating

In another verse (and if a calamity befalls you, they rejoice over it) and the reading “they rejoice” comes with the extension of 6 vowels, and the meaning is that there is intense joy over the calamities that you fall into, and perhaps they were the ones who caused you to fall into it. In a little while, you will learn about the psychology of gloating and the reasons behind gloating, as for here, I ask God - the Almighty - that we will never be one of these characters. Smiling at the hardships of others is as if you were a sadistic human being who does not feel or feel pain for the pain of others. His human value as a human being was stripped from him, and he became a talking animal directed to his desires and wishes alone, and after him the flood.?.

The psychology behind the gloating

Friedrich Nietzsche once said, “Humor is just Schadenfreude with a clear conscience.” Nietzsche suggested that the emotional pain people feel about their in-group's inferiority results in the pleasure of schadenfreude when a successful out-group fails. Subsequent research has supported the notion that schadenfreude has more to do with the inferiority of the self rather than the success of others. Nietzsche also thought that schadenfreude served only as a temporary panacea for the pain of domain inferiority.

The research has shown that

schadenfreude is rampant in sports, where it is not only directed at rival teams but also team sponsors. Experts suggest that companies should approach sponsorship gingerly to avoid inciting customers who are fans of rival teams.

Schadenfreude is thought to be closely linked to Dark Triad traits (ie, narcissism, Machiavellianism, and psychopathy), as well as sensational interests, including those in guns, knives, true crime, the occult, and Nazism.

The dishonesty

The Prophet said - peace be upon him -

[On the authority of Abdullah bin Amr, he said: The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: Four things are in them, he is a pure hypocrite, whoever has one of these traits has a trait of hypocrisy, until he abandons it: When he speaks, he lies, when he makes a covenant, he betrays it, when he makes a promise, he breaks it, and when he quarrels, he licentious,However, in the hadith of Sufyan, even if it contains one of these traits, it also contains a trait of hypocrisy.

The meaning of the noble Hadith

A group of scholars said: What is meant by it is: the hypocrites, who were in the time of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, so they spoke of their faith and lied, and they trusted their religion and betrayed, They promised to command the religion and its victory, but they broke it, and they licentious out in their disputes, ??“Fajr” means: cursing and throwing ugly things.

The idea of dishonesty

A central idea in Islam. Betrayal of trust is unacceptable under any circumstances in Islam. Betrayal is not only about money, but it has several meanings in the Islamic religion. Here is a share of them:

1 - Honesty is Islam, that is, the entire religion, so if you betray the religion in any way You are a traitor to the trust. God Almighty said, “Indeed, We have offered the trust to the heavens and the earth and the mountains refused to carry it, And they were afraid of it, and man carried it. Indeed, he was unjust and ignorant. (Al-Ahzab: 72)

2 - Sittings in trust: If someone tells you something and then he turn around and he does not say a single word to you, this means that he trusts you with his secret, so do not divulge it. If you divulge it, then you are a hypocrite or you have one of the characteristics of hypocrisy.

3 - The advisor is trustworthy: whoever advises you on a matter and you advise him on what benefits your interests, and not him, you are a traitor to the trust and you have one of the traits of hypocrisy.

4 - The contracts have trust, including partnership, marriage, rental, and other contracts. Whoever betrays a contract after it has been concluded is a traitor to the trust, according to what the Messenger of God said on the authority of Abu Hurairah, he attributed it to the Prophet, saying: God says: I am the third of the two partners, Unless one of them betrays his friend, if he betrays him, I will leave them.?Narrated by Abu Dawud, Al-Bayhaqi and Al-Daraqutni.

5 - The purification from the menstrual cycle for women is a trust, because no one can know this at all except her, so if she is late in purifying herself, then she is a traitor to the trust.

6 - And of course, the trust of money: If you take people’s money and want to eat it or part of it, then you are a traitor to the trust, and if you want to return it, God will return it from you, according to the hadith of the Messenger of God: The Messenger of God, peace and blessings be upon him, said: Whoever takes people’s money and wants to destroy it, God will destroy him.” Narrated by Al-Bukhari., ??The meaning of (God destroyed him) is that God destroyed his soul, his money, or his livelihood, and took away the blessing from him.

And of course other things that the place does not have room for, and therefore one of the good nickname with which he described one of the companions to be a beacon for the nation after him (Secretary of the Nation: Abu Ubaidah bin Al-Jarrah) So, if you have betrayed a higher trust or are telling yourself to betray it, do yourself a favor by abandoning it, for you have a trait of hypocrisy.

Your Brain on Dishonesty

A team of researchers at University College London and Duke University set out to find out what exactly goes on in the brain when we tell a lie. In particular, they wanted to know whether the brain becomes desensitized to dishonesty over time, making it easier to tell a lie when we do so over and over again, In other words, dishonesty snowballed—lies started small but increased steadily in magnitude over time.

Just like when we encounter other unpleasant stimuli—like loud noises or frightening images, for example—the brain has the ability to adapt and make the stimuli less intense. Unfortunately, in this case, adaptation makes it easier to do a bad thing. When lying no longer stirs up negative feelings, we are able to increase the magnitude of our lies. Then the additional, larger lies further deaden our sensitivity to the act of lying, and the slippery slope continues.

They laying

The Prophet, peace and blessings of God be upon him, said:

The signs of a hypocrite are three: when he speaks, he lies, when he makes a promise, he breaks it, and when he is trusted, he betrays it.

The result: He expands into lying and aggression against his opponent

The idea of lying

Soon you will learn about the psychological reasons for lying, but here we will not talk about the reasons. Rather, we will talk about lying as a habit that you get used to when you are young, it rarely stops doing it in old age, except for those who have mercy from God. There are people whose goal in life is (to lie, even about something trivial). They are accustomed to going around, and they are accustomed to lying, and life rewards them repeatedly, It did not reveal their lies, but if the time comes to discover their lies, they will become smaller and smaller in themselves.

Reasons for lying

Why People Lie

People resort to lying for so many different reasons that it’d be impossible to list them all. However, of the most common motives for telling lies, avoiding punishment is the primary motivator for both children and adults. Other typical reasons include protecting ourselves or others from harm, maintaining privacy, and avoiding embarrassment, to name a few

The intense hostility

Peace and blessings of God be upon him:

Four things, whoever is in it is a pure hypocrite, .... and if he quarrels, he becomes an immoral person, .... Narrated by the two sheikhs from the hadith of Abdullah bin Omar - may God be pleased with them both.

Immorality is the expansion of sin and its manifestation - we ask God for well-being -

The idea of intense rivalry

Some people, in the past, present, and even the future, defend themselves through intense rivalry to say, “I am here.” they may feel frustrated by the rise of a star whom they are fighting against, and they want this leadership or this stardom, So she hates him and escalates hostility and intense rivalry towards him. Abu Mahdhurah made fun of Bilal al-Habashi’s " The call for the prayer" - may God be pleased with them and please them - and he is who he is (the softest voice: Bilal al-Habashi), Even the Messenger of God - may God’s prayers and peace be upon him - changed his position in favor of Bilal and in favor of the believers, even though they were returning from a battle that they had not succeeded in winning, but he - may God’s prayers and peace be upon him - He took the initiative and asked who was making fun of Bilal’s call to prayer, and when he learned who it was and it was “Abi Mahdhoora,” he told him to say the call to prayer, and when he finished he decided to give the call to prayer with to him with Bilal.... We believe that this is the root cause of the intense dispute.

The Sadists and psychopaths

Someone who gets pleasure from hurting or humiliating others is a sadist. Sadists feel other people’s pain more than is normal. And they enjoy it. At least, they do until it is over, when they may feel bad. the popular imagination associates sadism with torturers and murderers. Yet there is also the less extreme, but more widespread, phenomenon of everyday sadism.

Where do these traits come from?

No one really knows why some people are sadistic. Some speculate that sadism is an adaptation that helped us slaughter animals when hunting. Others propose it helped people to gain power. italian philosopher and diplomat Niccolò Machiavelli once suggested that “the times, not men, create disorder”. Consistent with this, neuroscience suggests sadism could be a survival tactic triggered by times becoming tough. When certain foods become scarce, our levels of the neurotransmitter, serotonin, fall. This fall makes us more willing to harm others because harming becomes more pleasurable.

The internal panic

Allah says

{?.... ??????????? ????? ???????? ??????????? ???? ?????????? ?????????????? ??????????? ???????? ??????? ???????????} (4)

{?....They consider every shout against them, they are to enemy so beware of them, God killed them and expelled them from His mercy} (4)

This is because of their cowardice, their fear, and the weakness of their hearts, and the doubt that is in their hearts that they fear will come to them. These people “are the enemy” in reality, because the prominent and distinguished enemy, It is more insignificant than the enemy who does not realize it, and he is deceitful and cunning, claiming that he is a guardian, and he is the clear enemy. It is more insignificant than the enemy who does not realize it, and he is a deceitful and cunning person who claims to be a guardian, and he is the clear enemy. {So beware of them, God will fight them and turn them away from His mercy, That is: How can they turn away from the Islamic religion after its evidence has become clear, ??Its features became clear, leading to disbelief that benefits them only loss and misery.

The idea of internal panic

You may find a person with a strong build and large bones, and when he sees a mouse, his heart trembles. And you may find a person with a weak build, but he is full of certainty and does not fear anyone but God - the Almighty - God - the Almighty - in this part of the noble verse teaches us that fear is essentially an internal physiological process, even if it does not appear on the limbs directly, the hypocrites imagine that every fear in life is theirs alone. Why??Because they know in their true selves that they are traitors, treacherous, and liars, even though their outward appearances are beautiful, as stated at the beginning of the verse: “...their bodies please you.” And God is Most High and All-Knowing.

the internal panic

Some researchers think panic attacks are like “false alarms” where our body's typical survival instincts are active either too often, too strongly, or some combination of the two. For example, someone with panic disorder might feel their heart pounding and assume they're having a heart attack.

The stinginess

Allah says

? ??????????????? ????????????????? ?????????? ???? ?????? ??????????? ????????????? ???????????? ???? ???????????? ????????????? ???????????? ?????? ??????? ???????????? ????? ??????????????? ???? ????????????? ? [??????: 67].

?The hypocrites, the male and female hypocrites, are one from another. They enjoin evil and forbid good, And they close their hands: They have forgotten God, and He has forgotten them, Indeed, the hypocrites are the transgressors.” [At-Tawbah: 67].

The idea of miserliness

That you are a stingy person and God has bestowed upon you one of His bounties indicates previous suffering that you experienced, especially in childhood, and people are mean when it comes to money, among them are those who take money generously and spend from it, God willing, as much as their hands are capable of. Among the people are those who have a lot and a lot, and when they try to spend from it, their hand, heart, and mind do not obey them, May God’s blessings be upon Muhammad, who taught us the hidden causes of stinginess, ( your children) Yes, your children,They make you cowardly and stingy. He is also the one who taught us to seek refuge in God morning and evening in the morning and evening remembrances, From (cowardice and miserliness) and linking them because one leads to the other. If you are a coward, you will be unable to use your money or develop it, ??If you are stingy, you will be stingy to get out of your capital, and God is Most High and Most Merciful.

The stinginess

Stinginess is a hoarding tendency that can cause harm to both the individual exhibiting it and those around them. While being mindful of resources is crucial, stinginess takes it to an unhealthy extreme. This type of behaviour often originates from psychological factors like low self-esteem, anxiety, and guilt, which cause individuals to hoard resources and lead to negative personal and professional relationships, as well as financial instability.

The reasons behind stinginess are multifaceted, ranging from upbringing to personality traits to life experiences. For instance, those raised in resource-limited environments may develop a scarcity mindset and fear of lack, leading to stinginess. Additionally, traits like low self-esteem and anxiety can also be contributing factors. Life events such as financial difficulties or job loss can trigger fear of resource depletion and drive the adoption of stingy behaviour.

The command with evil and forbidding good deeds

Allah says

? ??????????????? ????????????????? ?????????? ???? ?????? ??????????? ????????????? ???????????? ???? ???????????? ..... ? [??????: 67].

?The hypocrites, the male and female hypocrites, are one from another, they enjoin evil and forbid good..... (At-Tawbah: 67).

:{They command evil, which is disbelief, immorality, and disobedience. {And they forbid what is right, which is faith, virtuous morals, good deeds, and good manners.

The opposite idea of the believers

(enjoining evil and forbidding good) What is known??It is what good people in a such society are accustomed to and what is evil??It is what the righteous people in a such society deny, and life is diverse, including rural and urban areas, It has Arabs, Persians, Bedouins, farmers, desert people, and others. therefore, if the idea of (enjoining good and forbidding evil) is narrow for people, It would have been narrow and broad, so enjoining what is right is enjoining all kinds of good, and forbidding what is wrong is forbidding all kinds of evil that sound and righteous minds in rural society, for example, reject where you find values higher than urban ones, even in foreign countries, here the hypocrites do the opposite: if they find a woman who dresses modestly, they say: You are young, and if they find someone spending from his money, they say to him: Your money will end, and not only that, but they are the ones who command evil.

What Actually Is Evil? And What Makes People Carry Out Evil Acts?

From genocide to malware and everything in between, it’s easy to feel demoralized about the moral fiber and caring of our fellow humans. It can certainly seem that malice is endemic to humans. The default state, perhaps, People who do evil things generally don’t consider themselves evil

People often tend to minimize the harmful impact of what they are doing or rationalize their reasons (even if motivated primarily by the simple desire for material gain or by threatened egotism), often seeing their action as much less of a big deal than the impact experienced from the victim’s point of view, or feeling that the victim threatened or provoked them or deserved what was done to them. Baumeister suggests that while the victims’ motto is “Never forget,” the perpetrators’ motto is “Let bygones be bygones,”5

Evil villains in Hollywood movies aside, Baumeister notes that “most people who do evil do not think of themselves as doing evil […], most of them regard themselves as good people who are trying to defend themselves as the good guys fighting against the forces of evil. The world breaks down into us against them, and it almost invariably turns out that evil lies on the side of ‘them’”6 (referring here more to violence between groups, nations, ideologies, etc., than to individual criminal acts).

Questioning God's promises in times of hardship

Allah says

??? ???? ????????? ?????? ?? ?????? ??? ?? ????? ???? ?????? ??? ????? .

And when the hypocrites and those in whose hearts is a disease say, “God and His Messenger promised us nothing but falsehood.”

This is because Tu’mah bin Abiraq, Mu’tab bin Qushayr, and a group of about seventy men said on the day of the Trench: How can we prepare the treasures of Khosrau and Caesar when none of us can defecate? They only said that when the Companions of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, reported that he said when striking the rock: ??according to what was mentioned above in Al-Nasa’i’s hadith;?Allah revealed this verse .

The idea of people despairing of hope

in goodness and its existence, especially in difficult times, and that it is coming in the future, if not the near, then the distant, is a fundamentally satanic idea, There is no idea of faith, but faith is spread (the sellers of hope) who sell hope through expressions that are not resonant, but rather humane to those who deserve and wish, Hearing good words is pleasing to the human soul, and despair is not good words, but rather a disgusting, satanic idea that only appears from a heart that feels fear and insecurity.

The Science of Hopelessness

When you lose hope in one area of your life, it slowly bleeds into others and colors everything you see. Viewing the world through the lens of hopelessness results in blocking out hopeful events and only seeing the hopeless ones, a process psychologists call “confirmation bias.“ In other words, you seek out situations that reinforce your outlook while ignoring those that challenge it.

in the end

You may have noticed that the characteristics of hypocrites are all unpraiseworthy and undesirable characteristics of healthy personalities. Perhaps God - the Almighty - does not like a Muslim to have a shaky personality, or it has characteristics that are not befitting human dignity, which encourages him to reject the hypocritical personality in order to avoid punishment, but the prohibition against imitating them includes (The dignity of the human personality beloved by God, beloved by people) ??May God grant us and you sincerity and avoidance of hypocrisy, as our master Omar bin Al-Khattab said: ( Oh God, do not make me a hypocrite, and do not let the hypocrite deceive me) Ameen.
