Surah 107,

Meccan

107:1
بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ أَرَءَيْتَ ٱلَّذِى يُكَذِّبُ بِٱلدِّينِ

HAST THOU ever considered [the kind of man] who gives the lie to all moral law?

107:2
فَذَٰلِكَ ٱلَّذِى يَدُعُّ ٱلْيَتِيمَ

Behold, it is this [kind of man] that thrusts the orphan away,

107:3
وَلَا يَحُضُّ عَلَىٰ طَعَامِ ٱلْمِسْكِينِ

and feels no urge to feed the needy.

107:4
فَوَيْلٌۭ لِّلْمُصَلِّينَ

Woe, then, unto those praying ones

107:5
ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ عَن صَلَاتِهِمْ سَاهُونَ

whose hearts from their prayer are remote

107:6
ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ يُرَآءُونَ

those who want only to be seen and praised,

107:7
وَيَمْنَعُونَ ٱلْمَاعُونَ

and, withal, deny all assistance [to their fellow-men]!
