The Degrees of Hypocrisy and the Difference Between Major and Minor Hypocrisy
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I move on to another questioner who asks, may Allah bless you: Does hypocrisy have degrees? And what is the difference between major hypocrisy and minor hypocrisy?
Answer:
The difference is clear. Minor hypocrisy is showing off in worship and seeking fame, which is found in some people. They show off to people and seek reputation. Allah (Mighty and Majestic) knows their intentions, observes their actions and conditions, and rewards them for that with just, divine justice. Nothing is hidden from Him (Glorified and Exalted is He). Yes.
The presenter:
Yes, may Allah bless you and reward you.
