63:1  When the hypocrites come Unto thee, they say: we bear witness that thou art indeed the apostle of Allah. Allah knoweth that thou art indeed His apostle, and Allah beareth witness that; the hypocrites are indeed liars

63:2  They have taken their oaths for a shield; then they turn away men from the way of Allah. Verily vile is that which they have been working

63:3  That is, because they believed, and thereafter disbelieved, wherefore their hearts are sealed, so that they understand not

63:4  And when thou beholdest them, their persons please thee: and if they speak, thou listenest to their discourse; they are as though they were blocks of wood propped up. They deem every shout to be against them. They are the enemy; so beware of them. Perish them Allah! whither are they deviating

63:5  And when it is said Unto them: come! that the apostle of Allah may ask forgiveness for you, they twist their heads, and thou beholdest them retire, while they are stiff-necked

63:6  Equal it is Unto them: whether thou askest forgiveness for them or askest not forgiveness for them, Allah shall forgive them not. Verily Allah guideth not a transgressing people

63:7  They are the ones who say: expend not on those who are with Allah's apostle, that they may disperse; whereas Allah's are the treasures of the heavens and the earth; yet the hypocrites understand not

63:8  They say: surely, if we return to Madina the mightier shall drive out the meaner thence: whereas might is Allah's and His apostle's and the believers; yet the hypocrites know not

63:9  O ye who believe let not your riches or your children divert you from the remembrance of Allah. And whosoever doth that then those! they are the losers

63:10  And expend of that wherewith We have provided you afore death cometh Unto one of you, and he saith: 'my Lord! wouldst Thou not defer me for a short term, so that I would give alms and become of the righteous

63:11  And Allah deferreth not a soul when its term- hath come; and Allah is Aware of that which ye do
