Translation by Mustafa Khattab Allah Edition — Permalink

Verse 1 — Surah Al-Munafiqun 63:1

When the hypocrites come to you ˹O Prophet˺, they say, “We bear witness that you are certainly the Messenger of Allah”—and surely Allah knows that you are His Messenger—but Allah bears witness that the hypocrites are truly liars

Verse 2 — Surah Al-Munafiqun 63:2

They have made their ˹false˺ oaths as a shield, hindering ˹others˺ from the Way of Allah. Evil indeed is what they do

Verse 3 — Surah Al-Munafiqun 63:3

This is because they believed and then abandoned faith. Therefore, their hearts have been sealed, so they do not comprehend

Verse 4 — Surah Al-Munafiqun 63:4

When you see them, their appearance impresses you. And when they speak, you listen to their ˹impressive˺ speech. But they are ˹just˺ like ˹worthless˺ planks of wood leaned ˹against a wall˺. They think every cry is against them. They are the enemy, so beware of them. May Allah condemn them! How can they be deluded ˹from the truth˺

Verse 5 — Surah Al-Munafiqun 63:5

When it is said to them, “Come! The Messenger of Allah will pray for you to be forgiven,” they turn their heads ˹in disgust˺, and you see them ˹O Prophet˺ turn away in arrogance

Verse 6 — Surah Al-Munafiqun 63:6

It is the same whether you pray for their forgiveness or not, Allah will not forgive them. Surely Allah does not guide the rebellious people

Verse 7 — Surah Al-Munafiqun 63:7

They are the ones who say ˹to one another˺, “Do not spend ˹anything˺ on those ˹emigrants˺ with the Messenger of Allah so that they will break away ˹from him˺.” But to Allah ˹alone˺ belong the treasuries of the heavens and the earth, yet the hypocrites do not comprehend

Verse 8 — Surah Al-Munafiqun 63:8

They say, “If we return to Medina, the honourable will definitely expel the inferior.” But all honour and power belongs to Allah, His Messenger, and the believers, yet the hypocrites do not know

Verse 9 — Surah Al-Munafiqun 63:9

O believers! Do not let your wealth or your children divert you from the remembrance of Allah. For whoever does so, it is they who are the ˹true˺ losers

Verse 10 — Surah Al-Munafiqun 63:10

And donate from what We have provided for you before death comes to one of you, and you cry, “My Lord! If only You delayed me for a short while, I would give in charity and be one of the righteous.”

Verse 11 — Surah Al-Munafiqun 63:11

But Allah never delays a soul when its appointed time comes. And Allah is All-Aware of what you do
