New Statements by Mr. Adnan Oktar (18 June 2016)

HYPOCRITES ARE VERY MUCH INCLINED TOWARDS THIEVERY. THE STATEMENTS IN THE ALTERED PARTS OF THE TORAH THAT ENCOURAGE THIEVERY WERE ADDED BY THE HYPOCRITES OF THAT ERA

Hypocrites have a maniacal nature with an inclination towards depravity and thievery. All hypocrites have such an inclination; they are thieves. In that era, hypocrites sought to have control over the Torah and an enmity against prophets emerged. For example, they viciously disparage the Prophet Solomon (pbuh) in the Torah. There were Torah scribes in that period. Out of fear, these scribes resigned themselves to the disposal of the hypocrites. Hypocrites would have them write down all sorts of vile slanders. They viciously disparaged many prophets.

For example, Samiri had a considerable influence over the Torah. He did not even let his name mentioned in the Torah. Such was his evilness. Look, it is written in the Torah, Exodus 3:22, "Every woman is to ask her neighbor and any woman living in her house for articles of silver and gold and for clothing." Do you see the thievery here? Look, "Every woman," they teach theft to women, "is to ask her neighbor," in other words, to ask the person or the relative she is a guest of, "and any woman living in her house," the person who is staying at her house as her guest, "for articles of silver and gold and for clothing." In other words, she is to ask them for clothes, gold and silver. "…which you will put on your sons and daughters." In other words, "you will adorn yourselves with what you have stolen." "And so you will plunder the Egyptians." In other words, ‘you will steal’. Would a Holy Book encourage theft? It is written, "You will plunder the Egyptians." There are no such commandments in the Bible. Neither are there in the Qur’an. On the contrary, theft is indicated in the Qur’an as a major crime. However, here theft, plunder is openly encouraged. Therefore, hypocrites are inclined towards thievery. These abnormal, unlawful deeds of theirs are related in the Torah, albeit as a legitimate, reasonable deed. But, this is a vile commandment. For example, in the Torah, 19th Chapter of Leviticus, God says, "Do not steal." Where did this commandment come from then? God says, "Do not steal. Do not lie. Do not deceive one another." But in another Chapter, you talk about theft encouraging people to steal.

HYPOCRITES HAVE A FORMIDABLE SENSE OF SUPERIORITY. THEY DEEM THEMSELVES EVEN SUPERIOR TO GOD -SURELY GOD IS ABOVE THAT THOUGHT.

Hypocrites are highly egocentric and arrogant as they deem themselves superior to God. For example, it is written in the Torah, "Israel have struggled with God and overcome", -surely God is above that thought. A Muslim would never say such a thing. The hypocrites of that era forced the chroniclers into writing these. As they are egocentric and deem themselves superior, they desire to be the ones who overcome God. What is the characteristic of satan as depicted in the Qur’an? To be the one who prevail over God. Looking at the hypocrites, they also share the same ambition to overcome God -surely, God is above that thought. Even in the Hereafter and in hell they are of the same impudent mentality. Therefore, they set their mind to overcome the prophet. Then they seek to overcome the loved ones of the prophet. This is why they martyred prophets; it stems from their desire to prevail. It is again their desire to prevail that drives them to say things against our Prophet (saas) that fiercely.

BY SAYING 'THE WEATHER IS HOT' OR 'OUR HOUSES ARE UNPROTECTED', THE HYPOCRITES OF OUR PROPHET'S (SAAS) ERA INTEND TO IMPLY –IN THEIR OWN TWISTED MINDS- THAT OUR PROPHET (SAAS) IS INCONSIDERATE. THROUGH SUCH WORDS, THE HYPOCRITES WOULD CLAIM SUPERIORITY OVER OUR PROPHET (SAAS) -JUST LIKE THE SATAN CLAIMED THAT HE IS MORE KNOWLEDGEABLE THAN GOD (SURELY GOD IS ABOVE SUCH THOUGHT)

Hypocrites are satan incarnate, so to speak. One should be extremely wary of them. To a Muslim, confronting a hypocrite is like playing a game of chess against a scorpion. That is because hypocrites are comparable to scorpions in the sense that one can never know when they will strike and sting. So, Muslims should pay utmost attention to hypocrites as if they are playing chess. For example, a hypocrite says, "Our houses are left unprotected." What does he mean by this? "The Prophet could not think of this." So what is he insinuating by saying so? Look, he means to say; ‘God sent us a person who cannot even think of such simple things as a prophet. So, God made a mistake.’ Surely, God is above such a claim. This is what he seeks to emphasize. In doing so, he actually means to say, ‘I am wiser and more conscientious than God.’ What does satan say? It says; ‘I am close to You. In fact, I am the most closest to You, but You do not know.’ -surely God is above such thought-, ‘I know better than You, and I will prove this to You,’ says satan. Likewise, the hypocrites strive to prove themselves. They are in a perpetual struggle to prove their superiority. In other words, they are utterly maniacal. They always look for a way to prove their superiority. They have evil natures.

THE SOULS OF THE HYPOCRITES ARE DEAD AND THAT IS CLEARLY UNDERSTOOD IN THEIR VACANT GAZES

Like an electron mass, the satan thoroughly encompasses the hypocrites and possesses them. In other words, satan manifests itself in their bodies where their own souls die, leaving behind only the soul of satan. Besides, referring to hypocrites, God says, "They are dead; they do not understand what you tell them." Therefore, when hypocrites speak, they do so like a drunken person who does not know what he is doing or saying. Talking to a hypocrite is no different than talking to an insane person. They are in fact unconscious, and that is clearly seen in their eyes. Their eyes drift away and become dull with a flicker of insanity but of course, their bodies are at satan's disposal, and as mentioned in the hadith, it sometimes makes them cry. Satan exploits this with great cunning. For example, satan imbues in their lower selves the knowledge of when to cry, when to remain silent and when to cause trouble, and they comply.
