سُورَةُ المَاعُونِ


بِسۡمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِیمِ

In the name of God, The Most Gracious, The Dispenser of Grace

أَرَءَیۡتَ ٱلَّذِی یُكَذِّبُ بِٱلدِّینِ (۱)

HAST THOU ever considered [the kind of man] who gives the lie to all moral law?

فَذَ ٰ⁠لِكَ ٱلَّذِی یَدُعُّ ٱلۡیَتِیمَ (۲)

Behold, it is this [kind of man] that thrusts the orphan away,

وَلَا یَحُضُّ عَلَىٰ طَعَامِ ٱلۡمِسۡكِینِ (۳)

and feels no urge to feed the needy.

فَوَیۡلࣱ لِّلۡمُصَلِّینَ (۴)

Woe, then, unto those praying ones

ٱلَّذِینَ هُمۡ عَن صَلَاتِهِمۡ سَاهُونَ (۵)

whose hearts from their prayer are remote

ٱلَّذِینَ هُمۡ یُرَاۤءُونَ (۶)

those who want only to be seen and praised,

وَیَمۡنَعُونَ ٱلۡمَاعُونَ (۷)

and, withal, deny all assistance [to their fellow-men]!
