Surah Al-Ma'un – Almsgiving

أَرَءَيْتَ ٱلَّذِى يُكَذِّبُ بِٱلدِّينِ

Ara-aital lazee yu kazzibu bid deen

Seest thou one who denies the Judgment (to come)?

فَذَٰلِكَ ٱلَّذِى يَدُعُّ ٱلْيَتِيمَ

Fa zaalikal lazi yadu'ul-yateem

Then such is the (man) who repulses the orphan (with harshness),

وَلَا يَحُضُّ عَلَىٰ طَعَامِ ٱلْمِسْكِينِ

Wa la ya huddu 'alaa ta'amil miskeen

And encourages not the feeding of the indigent.

فَوَيْلٌۭ لِّلْمُصَلِّينَ

Fa wai lul-lil mu salleen

So woe to the worshippers

ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ عَن صَلَاتِهِمْ سَاهُونَ

Al lazeena hum 'an salaatihim sahoon

Who are neglectful of their prayers,

ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ يُرَآءُونَ

Al lazeena hum yuraa-oon

Those who (want but) to be seen (of men),

وَيَمْنَعُونَ ٱلْمَاعُونَ

Wa yamna'oonal ma'oon

But refuse (to supply) (even) neighbourly needs.
