Al-Munafiqun – المنافقون
بِسمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحمٰنِ الرَّحيمِ
إِذا جاءَكَ المُنٰفِقونَ قالوا نَشهَدُ إِنَّكَ لَرَسولُ اللَّهِ وَاللَّهُ يَعلَمُ إِنَّكَ لَرَسولُهُ وَاللَّهُ يَشهَدُ إِنَّ المُنٰفِقينَ لَكٰذِبونَ
اتَّخَذوا أَيمٰنَهُم جُنَّةً فَصَدّوا عَن سَبيلِ اللَّهِ إِنَّهُم ساءَ ما كانوا يَعمَلونَ
ذٰلِكَ بِأَنَّهُم ءامَنوا ثُمَّ كَفَروا فَطُبِعَ عَلىٰ قُلوبِهِم فَهُم لا يَفقَهونَ
وَإِذا رَأَيتَهُم تُعجِبُكَ أَجسامُهُم وَإِن يَقولوا تَسمَع لِقَولِهِم كَأَنَّهُم خُشُبٌ مُسَنَّدَةٌ يَحسَبونَ كُلَّ صَيحَةٍ عَلَيهِم هُمُ العَدُوُّ فَاحذَرهُم قٰتَلَهُمُ اللَّهُ أَنّىٰ يُؤفَكونَ
When the hypocrites come to you, [O Muḥammad], they say, "We testify that you are the Messenger of Allāh." And Allāh knows that you are His Messenger, and Allāh testifies that the hypocrites are liars.
They have taken their oaths as a cover, so they averted [people] from the way of Allāh. Indeed, it was evil that they were doing.
That is because they believed, and then they disbelieved; so their hearts were sealed over, and they do not understand.
And when you see them, their forms please you, and if they speak, you listen to their speech. [They are] as if they were pieces of wood propped up - they think that every shout is against them. They are the enemy, so beware of them. May Allāh destroy them; how are they deluded?
