Charity

In the name of GOD, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

bis'mi l-lahi l-raḥmāni l-raḥīm

Do you know who really rejects the faith?

أَرَءَيْتَ ٱلَّذِى يُكَذِّبُ بِٱلدِّينِ

ara-ayta alladhī yukadhibu bil-dīn

That is the one who mistreats the orphans.

فَذَٰلِكَ ٱلَّذِى يَدُعُّ ٱلْيَتِيمَ

fadhālika alladhī yaduʿʿu l-yatīm

And does not advocate the feeding of the poor.

وَلَا يَحُضُّ عَلَىٰ طَعَامِ ٱلْمِسْكِينِ

walā yaḥuḍḍu ʿalā ṭaʿāmi l-mis'kīn

And woe to those who observe the contact prayers (Salat)—

فَوَيْلٌ لِّلْمُصَلِّينَ

fawaylun lil'muṣallīn

who are totally heedless of their prayers.

ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ عَن صَلَاتِهِمْ سَاهُونَ

alladhīna hum ʿan ṣalātihim sāhūn

They only show off.

ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ يُرَآءُونَ

alladhīna hum yurāūn

And they forbid charity.

وَيَمْنَعُونَ ٱلْمَاعُونَ

wayamnaʿūna l-māʿūn
