٦٣ - ٱلْمُنَافِقُون

63 - Al-Munafiqoun

اِذَا جَاۗءَكَ الْمُنٰفِقُوْنَ قَالُوْا نَشْہَدُ اِنَّكَ لَرَسُوْلُ اؘ۝۰ۘ وَاللہُ يَعْلَمُ اِنَّكَ لَرَسُوْلُہٗ۝۰ۭ وَاللہُ يَشْہَدُ اِنَّ الْمُنٰفِقِيْنَ لَكٰذِبُوْنَ۝۱ۚ
Itha jaaka almunafiqoona qaloo nashhadu innaka larasoolu Allahi waAllahu yaAAlamu innaka larasooluhu waAllahu yashhadu inna almunafiqeena lakathiboona

English

Ahmed Ali

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.

1

اِتَّخَذُوْۗا اَيْمَانَہُمْ جُنَّۃً فَصَدُّوْا عَنْ سَبِيْلِ اؘ۝۰ۭ اِنَّہُمْ سَاۗءَ مَا كَانُوْا يَعْمَلُوْنَ۝۲
Ittakhathoo aymanahum junnatan fasaddoo AAan sabeeli Allahi innahum saa ma kanoo yaAAmaloona

English

Ahmed Ali

They have made their oaths a shield in order to obstruct others from the way of God. It is certainly evil what they do.

2

ذٰلِكَ بِاَنَّہُمْ اٰمَنُوْا ثُمَّ كَفَرُوْا فَطُبِعَ عَلٰي قُلُوْبِہِمْ فَہُمْ لَا يَفْقَہُوْنَ۝۳
Thalika biannahum amanoo thumma kafaroo fatubiAAa AAala quloobihim fahum la yafqahoona

English

Ahmed Ali

That is because they came to believe, and then renounced (their faith). So their hearts were sealed; and now they do not understand.

3

وَاِذَا رَاَيْتَہُمْ تُعْجِبُكَ اَجْسَامُہُمْ۝۰ۭ وَاِنْ يَّقُوْلُوْا تَسْمَعْ لِقَوْلِہِمْ۝۰ۭ كَاَنَّہُمْ خُشُبٌ مُّسَـنَّدَۃٌ۝۰ۭ يَحْسَبُوْنَ كُلَّ صَيْحَۃٍ عَلَيْہِمْ۝۰ۭ ہُمُ الْعَدُوُّ فَاحْذَرْہُمْ۝۰ۭ قٰتَلَہُمُ اؙ۝۰ۡاَنّٰى يُؤْفَكُوْنَ۝۴
Waitha raaytahum tuAAjibuka ajsamuhum wain yaqooloo tasmaAA liqawlihim kaannahum khushubun musannadatun yahsaboona kulla sayhatin AAalayhim humu alAAaduwwu faihtharhum qatalahumu Allahu anna yufakoona

English

Ahmed Ali

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!

4

وَاِذَا قِيْلَ لَہُمْ تَعَالَوْا يَسْتَغْفِرْ لَكُمْ رَسُوْلُ اللہِ لَوَّوْا رُءُوْسَہُمْ وَرَاَيْتَہُمْ يَصُدُّوْنَ وَہُمْ مُّسْـتَكْبِرُوْنَ۝۵
Waitha qeela lahum taAAalaw yastaghfir lakum rasoolu Allahi lawwaw ruoosahum waraaytahum yasuddoona wahum mustakbiroona

English

Ahmed Ali

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.

5

سَوَاۗءٌ عَلَيْہِمْ اَسْتَغْفَرْتَ لَہُمْ اَمْ لَمْ تَسْتَغْفِرْ لَہُمْ۝۰ۭ لَنْ يَّغْفِرَ اللہُ لَہُمْ۝۰ۭ اِنَّ اللہَ لَا يَہْدِي الْقَوْمَ الْفٰسِقِيْنَ۝۶
Sawaon AAalayhim astaghfarta lahum am lam tastaghfir lahum lan yaghfira Allahu lahum inna Allaha la yahdee alqawma alfasiqeena

English

Ahmed Ali

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.

6

ہُمُ الَّذِيْنَ يَقُوْلُوْنَ لَا تُنْفِقُوْا عَلٰي مَنْ عِنْدَ رَسُوْلِ اللہِ حَتّٰى يَنْفَضُّوْا۝۰ۭ وَلِلہِ خَزَاۗىِٕنُ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالْاَرْضِ وَلٰكِنَّ الْمُنٰفِقِيْنَ لَا يَفْقَہُوْنَ۝۷
Humu allatheena yaqooloona la tunfiqoo AAala man AAinda rasooli Allahi hatta yanfaddoo walillahi khazainu alssamawati waalardi walakinna almunafiqeena la yafqahoona

English

Ahmed Ali

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.

7

يَقُوْلُوْنَ لَىِٕنْ رَّجَعْنَاۗ اِلَى الْمَدِيْنَۃِ لَيُخْرِجَنَّ الْاَعَزُّ مِنْہَا الْاَذَلَّ۝۰ۭ وَلِلہِ الْعِزَّۃُ وَلِرَسُوْلِہٖ وَلِلْمُؤْمِنِيْنَ وَلٰكِنَّ الْمُنٰفِقِيْنَ لَا يَعْلَمُوْنَ۝۸ۧ
Yaqooloona lain rajaAAna ila almadeenati layukhrijanna alaAAazzu minha alathalla walillahi alAAizzatu walirasoolihi walilmumineena walakinna almunafiqeena la yaAAlamoona

English

Ahmed Ali

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.

8

يٰۗاَيُّہَا الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا لَا تُلْہِكُمْ اَمْوَالُكُمْ وَلَاۗ اَوْلَادُكُمْ عَنْ ذِكْرِ اؘ۝۰ۚ وَمَنْ يَّفْعَلْ ذٰلِكَ فَاُولٰۗىِٕكَ ہُمُ الْخٰسِرُوْنَ۝۹
Ya ayyuha allatheena amanoo la tulhikum amwalukum wala awladukum AAan thikri Allahi waman yafAAal thalika faolaika humu alkhasiroona

English

Ahmed Ali

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.

9

وَاَنْفِقُوْا مِنْ مَّا رَزَقْنٰكُمْ مِّنْ قَبْلِ اَنْ يَّاْتِيَ اَحَدَكُمُ الْمَوْتُ فَيَقُوْلَ رَبِّ لَوْلَاۗ اَخَّرْتَنِيْۗ اِلٰۗى اَجَلٍ قَرِيْبٍ۝۰ۙ فَاَصَّدَّقَ وَاَكُنْ مِّنَ الصّٰلِحِيْنَ۝۱۰
Waanfiqoo min ma razaqnakum min qabli an yatiya ahadakumu almawtu fayaqoola rabbi lawla akhkhartanee ila ajalin qareebin faassaddaqa waakun mina alssaliheena

English

Ahmed Ali

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?"
