Al-Ma'un
Translation by
Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran
Al-Ma'un
أَرَأَيْتَ الَّذِي يُكَذِّبُ بِالدِّينِ ﴿1﴾
Have you seen the one who denies the ˹final˺ Judgment?
فَذَٰلِكَ الَّذِي يَدُعُّ الْيَتِيمَ ﴿2﴾
That is the one who repulses the orphan,
وَلَا يَحُضُّ عَلَىٰ طَعَامِ الْمِسْكِينِ ﴿3﴾
and does not encourage the feeding of the poor.
فَوَيْلٌ لِلْمُصَلِّينَ ﴿4﴾
So woe to those ˹hypocrites˺ who pray
هُمْ عَنْ صَلَاتِهِمْ سَاهُونَ ﴿5﴾
yet are unmindful of their prayers;
الَّذِينَ هُمْ يُرَاءُونَ ﴿6﴾
those who ˹only˺ show off,
وَيَمْنَعُونَ الْمَاعُونَ ﴿7﴾
and refuse to give ˹even the simplest˺ aid.1
