63. Al-Munafiqun
In the Name of Allah, the Most
Beneficent, the Most Merciful.
1. When the hypocrites
come to you (O Muhammad  ),
they say: "We bear witness that you are indeed the Messenger
of Allah." Allah knows that you are indeed His
Messenger and Allah bears witness that the hypocrites are
liars indeed.
2. They have made
their oaths a screen (for their hypocrisy). Thus they hinder (men)
from the Path of Allah. Verily, evil is what they used to
do.
3. That is because
they believed, then disbelieved, therefore their hearts are sealed,
so they understand not.
4. And when you look
at them, their bodies please you; and when they speak, you listen
to their words. They are as blocks of wood propped up. They think
that every cry is against them. They are the enemies, so beware
of them. May Allah curse them! How are they denying (or
deviating from) the Right Path.
5. And when it is
said to them: "Come, so that the Messenger of Allah
may ask forgiveness from Allah for you", they turn
aside their heads, and you would see them turning away their faces
in pride.
6. It is equal to
them whether you (Muhammad )
ask forgiveness or ask not forgiveness for them. Verily, Allah
guides not the people who are the Fasiqin (rebellious,
disobedient to Allah) .
7. They are the ones
who say: "Spend not on those who are with Allah's Messenger,
until they desert him." And to Allah belong the treasures
of the heavens and the earth, but the hypocrites comprehend not.
8. They (hyprocrites)
say: "If we return to Al-Madinah, indeed the more honourable
('Abdullah bin Ubai bin Salul, the chief of hyprocrites
at AlMadinah) will expel therefrom the meaner (i.e. Allah's
Messenger )."
But honour, power and glory belong to Allah, His Messenger
(Muhammad ),
and to the believers, but the hypocrites know not.
9. O you who believe!
Let not your properties or your children divert you from the remembrance
of Allah. And whosoever does that, then they are the losers.
10. And spend (in
charity) of that with which We have provided you, before
death comes to one of you and he says: "My
Lord! If only You would give me respite for a little while (i.e.
return to the worldly life), then I should give Sadaqah (i.e.
Zakat) of my wealth , and be
among the righteous [i.e. perform Hajj (pilgrimage to Makkah)].
11. And Allah
grants respite to none when his appointed time (death) comes.
And Allah is All-Aware of what you do.
