| | Ahmed Ali rendition of Surah The Hypocrites(al-Munafiqun) --- |
---|
63:1 | | WHEN THE HYPOCRITES come to you, they say: "We affirm that you are the Apostle of God." God indeed knows you are His Apostle. God bears witness that the hypocrites are indeed liars | 63:2 | | They have made their oaths a shield in order to obstruct others from the way of God. It is certainly evil what they do | 63:3 | | That is because they came to believe, and then renounced (their faith). So their hearts were sealed; and now they do not understand | 63:4 | | Pleasing seem their persons when you look at them; and when they talk, you listen to their speech. Yet they are like the wooden panelling of a wall. They imagine every rebuke to be directed against them. They are the enemies, beware of them. May God damn them, how pervert are they | 63:5 | | When you tell them: "Come, let the Apostle of God ask forgiveness for you," they turn their heads, and you see them turning away with arrogance | 63:6 | | Whether you ask forgiveness for them or do not ask, it is all the same; God will not forgive them. Surely God does not show a disobedient people the way | 63:7 | | They are the ones who say: "Do not spend on those who are with the Apostle of God till they break away (from him)." To God belong the treasures of the heavens and the earth; but the hypocrites do not understand | 63:8 | | They say: "If we now go back to Madina, the stronger will turn the weaker out." But power belongs to God, His Apostle and the faithful, though the hypocrites do not know | 63:9 | | O you who believe, let not your wealth and children make you negligent of the remembrance of God. Those who do so will be losers | 63:10 | | Spend of what We have given you before death comes to one of you, when he will say: "O Lord, why did you not defer my term for a while that I could give alms and be among the doers of good?" | 63:11 | | But God does not grant a soul respite once its term has come to end. And God is aware of what you do |
