  5. Verse 8

  6. Verse 8 • There are 3 groups: • 1. Believers • 2. Disbelievers • 3. Hypocrites • part of; some people do this; Allah SWT does not describe these people as people who have taqwa or as kaafir, because they are neither; Hypocrites they always try to be in the middle

  7. Context • This group emerged in Madinah • The Muslims were growing in numbers and becoming popular, so these people claimed to be Muslim just to be accepted • They were doing this for dunya purposes and losing their akihrah in return

  8. Verse 8 This after “maa” gives the meaning of “not”

  9. Verse 8 • An Naas – Different roots and meanings: • To dangle, to swing back and forth • To forget; those who forget • To love; to have friendships; humans tend to become familiar with each other

  10. Verse 9

  11. Verse 9 To conceal the reality and keep the other person unaware about it; a person says something but means something else Literal: hair; something that is fine; to know beware of the fine details; Technical: To perceive something, understanding something (a level higher than knowledge)

  12. Verse 10

  13. Any kind of imbalance in the body; includes mental illnesses as well • 2 diseases of the heart: • Doubts (shubuhaat) • Desires (shahawaat) Doubt about the Qu’ran & Prophet saw When doubt and disease enters the heart, it extinguishes imaan

  14. To increase; why does Allah SWT allow the disease to increase? Because it’s a natural consequence and if you don’t treat it, or cure it, it will only grow • Allah only facilitates what’s in your heart

  15. Verse 10 • Aleem that which gives pain • For these people there is a painful punishment • Its both severe and constant • The hypocrites will be in the lowest level of hell fire; also they will be returned to the hell fire • VERSUS the punishment for the previous group (disbelievers): An intense and everlasting punishment

  16. Verse 10Why a Painful Punishment? • A lie; something against reality • (Kaanoo) Habitually lying; they lied about being liars • 3 signs of a Hypocrite: • When he speaks, he tells a lie • When he makes a promise, he breaks it • When he is trusted with something, he breaks the trust

  17. Lessons Learned • Hypocrites lie, deceive and try to harm other people, from the inside out • Believers are not treacherous people • You are being foolish if you are trying to lie to Allah SWT • Being 2-faced leads to loss of intelligence (lack of perception – shaa’r)

  18. Verse 10 - Review

  19. REFLECTIONS?

  20. Until Next Class… • Self-Analysis… • Is my private and public life the same? • Do I believe in my heart, and not just on the tongue? • Do I lie constantly? If not, am I trying to stop white lies as well? • Do I swear oaths and reaffirm my belief constantly? • Go over translation of ayahs 6-10 • Next Week: More symptoms of hypocrites
