Surah Al-Ma’un

Surah Al-Ma’un

بِسۡمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

In the name of the Great and Everlasting Merciful God.

أَرَءَيۡتَ ٱلَّذِي يُكَذِّبُ بِٱلدِّينِ

No, I have not seen such a person who evades retribution and punishment.

فَذَٰلِكَ ٱلَّذِي يَدُعُّ ٱلۡيَتِيمَ

He is indeed the one who mistreats the orphan.

وَلَا يَحُضُّ عَلَىٰ طَعَامِ ٱلۡمِسۡكِينِ

And he does not encourage the feeding of the needy.

فَوَيۡلٞ لِّلۡمُصَلِّينَ

So, destruction awaits such worshippers.

ٱلَّذِينَ هُمۡ عَن صَلَاتِهِمۡ سَاهُونَ

Who remain heedless of their prayers.

ٱلَّذِينَ هُمۡ يُرَآءُونَ

Who engage in showing off and insincerity.

وَيَمۡنَعُونَ ٱلۡمَاعُونَ

And they withhold even small acts of kindness from the needy.
