#63. Munafiqoon *SURAH*



In the name of Allah Most Gracious Most Merciful




1. When the Hypocrites come to thee they say "We bear witness
that thou art indeed the Apostle of Allah." Yea Allah knoweth
that thou art indeed His Apostle and Allah beareth witness that
the Hypocrites are indeed liars

2. They have made their oaths a screen (for their misdeeds): thus
they obstruct (men) from the Path of Allah: truly evil are their
deeds

3. That is because they believed then they rejected Faith: so a
seal was set on their hearts: therefore they understand not

4. When thou lookest at them their exteriors please thee; and
when they speak thou listenest to their words. They are as
(worthless as hollow) pieces of timber propped up (unable to
stand on their own). They think that every cry is against them.
They are the enemies; so beware of them. The curse of Allah be on
them! How are they deluded (away from the Truth)!

5. And when it is said to them "Come the Apostle of Allah will
pray for your forgiveness" they turn aside their heads and thou
wouldst see them turning away their faces in arrogance

6. It is equal to them whether thou pray for their forgiveness or
not. Allah will not forgive them. Truly Allah guides not
rebellious transgressors

7. They are the ones who say "Spend nothing on those who are with
Allah's Apostle to the end that they may disperse (and quit
Madinah). But to Allah belong the treasures of the heavens and
the earth; but the Hypocrites understand not

8. They say "If we return to Madinah surely the more honorable
(element) will expel there from the meaner." But honor belongs to
Allah and His Apostle and to the Believers; but the Hypocrites
know not.

9. O ye who believe! let not your riches or your children divert
you from the remembrance of Allah. If any act thus the loss is
their own

10. And spend something (in charity) out of the substance which
We have bestowed on you before death should come to any of you
and he should say "O my Lord! why didst thou not give me respite
for a little while? I should then have given (largely) in charity
and I should have been one of the doers of good."

11. But to no soul will Allah grant respite when the time
appointed (for it) has come: and Allah is well-acquainted with
(all) that ye do
