If it is said to this hypocrite, who shows what is different from what he conceals: Fear Allah (swt) – and “fear Allah” is a comprehensive word in which all the meanings of good gather – he goes away. And if it is said to him: You should measure your actions according to standards of goodness, he is led by arrogance to more crime. Is there pride without sin? Yes, as Allah (swt) says:

 {وَلِلَّهِ الْعِزَّةُ وَلِرَسُولِهِ وَلِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَلَٰكِنَّ الْمُنَافِقِينَ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ}

(And to Allah belongs [all] honor, and to His Messenger, and to the believers, but the hypocrites do not know.)  (Al-Munaafiqoon: 8)

So, there is pride in the sin, as the Pharaoh’s magicians said:

{ بِعِزَّةِ فِرْعَوْنَ إِنَّا لَنَحْنُ الْغَالِبُونَ }

(“By the might of Pharaoh, indeed it is we who are predominant.”.)  (Ash-Shu‘araa: 44)

( فَحَسْبُهُ جَهَنَّمُ ۚ ) (Sufficient for him is Hellfire..): Meaning, it is enough punishment and penalty for him, as you say to a man: it is enough what happened to you, while you consider what happened to him severe.

( وَلَبِئْسَ الْمِهَادُ ) (and how wretched is the resting place..): Allah (swt) likened hell to the cradles, which are the places that are prepared for the babies to sleep. Allah (swt) called the hell cradles; because it is their settlement place since they do not have strength to leave. Hence, there is no comfort for the hypocrite, the criminal, the murderer, the aggressor, the unjust and the corruptor; because his destiny will be the Hellfire
