107. Surah Al-Ma'un (The Small Kindnesses)

Sūrat al-Māʿūn (Arabic: سورة الماعون‎, "Small Kindnesses, Almsgiving, Have You Seen") is the 107th sura of the Qur'an with 7 ayat.This surah is concerned with two of the core teachings of Islam, how you pray and how you give. The Surah discusses the character of those who claim to be Muslims but are oblivious of the hereafter. These people deprive the orphans of their rights, are heedless to the dues of the destitute, and pray without holding God in remembrance, forgetting the objective behind prayer. Their charitable acts are a display of their false piety, since they do not give for the love of God. The Surah has been so designated after the word al-ma`un occurring at the end of the last verse.

                                              

In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful. 

1. Hast thou observed him who belieth religion ? 

2. That is he who repelleth the orphan, 

3. And urgeth not the feeding of the needy. 

4. Ah, woe unto worshippers 

5. Who are heedless of their prayer; 

6. Who would be seen (at worship) 

7. Yet refuse small kindnesses!
