Surat-al-Ma'un

Guest

أَرَءَيۡتَ ٱلَّذِى يُكَذِّبُ بِٱلدِّينِ
فَذَٲلِكَ ٱلَّذِى يَدُعُّ ٱلۡيَتِيمَ
وَلَا يَحُضُّ عَلَىٰ طَعَامِ ٱلۡمِسۡكِينِ
فَوَيۡلٌ۬ لِّلۡمُصَلِّينَ
ٱلَّذِينَ هُمۡ عَن صَلَاتِہِمۡ سَاهُونَ
ٱلَّذِينَ هُمۡ يُرَآءُونَ
وَيَمۡنَعُونَ ٱلۡمَاعُونَ

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

1. Have you seen him who denies the Recompense?
2. That is he who repulses the orphan,
3. And urges not the feeding of the poor,
4. So, woe unto those performers of Salah,
5. Those who are with their Salaat are Sahun.
6. Those who do good deeds only to be seen,
7. And withhold Al-Ma 'un.
