Utilizing new research tools is a methodical reflection that can be used to better understand of religious texts. Fairclough’s critical discourse analysis model is an interdisciplinary method in the texts qualitative analysis that examines linguistic and metalanguage elements at three levels: description, interpretation and explanation. This study intends to apply discourse analysis model to understand the Qur'anic hypocrisy verses. The research results indicate that at description level, the divine discourse has introduced the identity of the hypocrites by choosing appropriate words and phrases. Semantic contrast, omission, de-personalization and empirical value of words are the most important levels in description level of hypocritical verses. The verses' situational context and the psychological component are among the metalanguage elements in the hypocrisy verses study, the attention to which has an effect on the objectivity of the critical discourse of the hypocrites. At the level of explanation, which is the reproduction of description and interpretation levels, the divine discourse has expressed the corrective methods in the face of the hypocrites. Giving insight, condemning counter-values, warning and tolerance and coexistence with hypocrites are the most important Qur'anic amendatory methods in the face of hypocrisy, which have a fundamental place in education.
