When the hypocrites come to you, they say, "We testify that surely you are indeed the Messenger of Allah. " And Allah knows (that) surely you are indeed His Messenger, and Allah testifies that surely the hypocrites are indeed liars.
2
They have taken to themselves their oaths as a pretext: so they have barred from the way of Allah. Surely odious is whatever they were doing.
3
That is for that they believed; thereafter they disbelieved; then their hearts have been stamped upon, (i. e., sealed) so they do not comprehend.
4
And when you see them, you admire their figures; and in case they speak, you hear their speech as if they were propped-up timbers. They reckon every shout is against them. They are the enemy, so beware of them. Allah assail them! However are they diverged (from the Truth)!
5
And when it is said to them, "Come. The Messenger of Allah will ask forgiveness for you, " they twist their heads, and you see them barring (themselves), and they are waxing proud.
6
Equal it is for them whether you ask forgiveness for them or you do not ask forgiveness for them, Allah will never forgive them; surely Allah does not guide the immoral people.
7
They are the ones who say, "Do not expend on the ones who are in the presence of the Messenger of Allah until they break away. " And to Allah belong the treasuries of the heavens and the earth, but the hypocrites do not comprehend.
8
They say, "Indeed in case we return to Al-Madînah, indeed the mightier ones will definitely drive the humbler ones out of it. " And might belongs to Allah, and to His Messenger, and to the believers, but the hypocrites do not know.
9
O you who have believed, do not let your riches nor your children divert you from the Remembrance of Allah; and whoever performs (Literally: acts) that, then those are they (who) are the losers.
10
And expend of what We have provided you even before the death comes up to one of you; then he says, "Lord! Had You deferred me to a near term, (i. e., go back to life for a while) so that I may donate (alms), and so I may become one of the righteous."
11
And Allah will never defer any self when its term comes; and Allah is Ever-Cognizant of whatever you do.
