[63.1] When the hypocrites come to you they say: 'We bear witness that you are the Messenger of Allah.' Allah knows that you (Prophet Muhammad) are indeed His Messenger, and Allah bears witness that the hypocrites are truly liars!
[63.2] They have taken their oaths as a cover and barred others from the Path of Allah. Evil is what they have done.
[63.3] That is because they believed, then disbelieved, because of this a seal has been set upon their hearts so they are unable to understand.
[63.4] When you see them their bodies please you, but when they speak and you listen to their sayings, they are like propped-up timber. Every shout (they hear) they take it to be against them. They are the enemy - be wary of them. Allah kills them! How perverse they are!
[63.5] When it is said to them: 'Come, the Messenger of Allah will ask forgiveness for you,' they turn their heads in pride and you see them go away.
[63.6] It is equal for them whether you ask for their forgiveness or you do not ask for their forgiveness, Allah will not forgive them. Allah does not guide the evildoers.
[63.7] It is they that say: 'Spend nothing on those who follow the Messenger of Allah until they disperse.' Yet to Allah belong the treasuries of heavens and the earth, but the hypocrites do not understand.
[63.8] They say: 'If we return to the City, the strong will expel the humiliated.' But the might belongs to Allah, and His Messenger and the believers, but the hypocrites do not know.
[63.9] Believers, do not let either your possessions or your children divert you from the Remembrance of Allah. Those who do that shall be the losers.
[63.10] So spend of that with which We have provided you before death comes upon any of you and he then says: 'O my Lord, if only You would defer me to a near term, so that I could give in charity and be among the good- doers.'
[63.11] But Allah will never defer any soul when its term comes. Allah is Aware of what you do.
