Can you please advise me how to best deal with a hypocrite?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Askimam.org

Can you please advise me how to best deal with a hypocrite?  I know someone who is blaten hypocritical Muslim, who belittles all around him while he himself does far worse.  I don’t want to excuse my wrong doings either, but I find it very hard to stomach at times.  Can you please advise me the best way to deal with this?

Thank you.

Answer

The appearance of a hypocritical nature does not necessarily render a person a hypocrite. From what you describe, the person is arrogant and vain.

I suggest you advise him politely to better his ways and to refrain from the sins he is guilty of.
