أَرَأَيْتَ الَّذِي يُكَذِّبُ بِالدِّينِ

Dr. Laleh Bakhtiar

Hadst thou considered one who denies this way of life?

Araayta allathee yukaththibu bialddeeni

فَذَٰلِكَ الَّذِي يَدُعُّ الْيَتِيمَ

Dr. Laleh Bakhtiar

And that is he who drives away with force the orphan

Fathalika allathee yaduAAAAu alyateema

وَلَا يَحُضُّ عَلَىٰ طَعَامِ الْمِسْكِينِ

Dr. Laleh Bakhtiar

and urges not to give food to the needy.

Wala yahuddu AAala taAAami almiskeeni

فَوَيْلٌ لِّلْمُصَلِّينَ

Dr. Laleh Bakhtiar

So woe to ones who formally pray,

Fawaylun lilmusalleena

الَّذِينَ هُمْ عَن صَلَاتِهِمْ سَاهُونَ

Dr. Laleh Bakhtiar

ones who are inattentive to their formal prayers,

Allatheena hum AAan salatihim sahoona

الَّذِينَ هُمْ يُرَاءُونَ

Dr. Laleh Bakhtiar

those who make display,

Allatheena hum yuraoona

وَيَمْنَعُونَ الْمَاعُونَ

Dr. Laleh Bakhtiar

yet they repulse giving the assistance.

WayamnaAAoona almaAAoona
