Translation by Mohammad Shafi — Permalink

Verse 1 — Surah Al-Munafiqun 63:1

When the hypocrites come to you, they say, "We bear witness that you certainly are a Messenger of Allah!" And Allah knows that you certainly are His Messenger. And Allah bears witness that the hypocrites are certainly indeed false

Verse 2 — Surah Al-Munafiqun 63:2

They take cover of their oaths to turn others away from Allah's Path. It is indeed evil what they do

Verse 3 — Surah Al-Munafiqun 63:3

That is because they believe, and then suppress the Truth! Consequently, a seal has been set on their minds so that they can no longer understand

Verse 4 — Surah Al-Munafiqun 63:4

And when you see them, their body language impresses you. And when they speak, you do listen to what they say. As if they were propped up puppets! They think that every cry is [directed] upon them. They are the real enemies, so beware of them! Allah's curse be on them! How very false are they

Verse 5 — Surah Al-Munafiqun 63:5

And when they are told, "Come, Allah's Messenger will pray to Allah that you be forgiven", they shake their heads! And you see them turning arrogantly away

Verse 6 — Surah Al-Munafiqun 63:6

It is all the same for them whether you pray that they be forgiven or you do not pray; Allah will not forgive them! Allah does indeed not give guidance to the transgressors

Verse 7 — Surah Al-Munafiqun 63:7

It is they who say, "Do not spend anything on those who are with Allah's Messenger, until they break away from him." And Allah's are the treasures of the heavens and the earth. But the hypocrites do not understand this truth

Verse 8 — Surah Al-Munafiqun 63:8

They say, "If we do return to the City, the honourable ones will surely drive out therefrom the downtrodden!" And all honour belongs to Allah, and to His Messenger, and to those who believe. But this, the hypocrites do not know

Verse 9 — Surah Al-Munafiqun 63:9

O you who believe! Let not your wealth or your children distract you from remembrance of Allah. And if any do that — it is they, they who are the ones doomed

Verse 10 — Surah Al-Munafiqun 63:10

And spend out of what We have provided for you, before the death approaches any of you, and that one then says, "My Lord! If only You would give me a little more time, so that I could pay due Sadaqah and be among the righteous

Verse 11 — Surah Al-Munafiqun 63:11

But Allah does not give a human being more time when his term expires. And Allah is well aware of what you do
