Listen and download Surah Al Maun mp3 by Syed Sudais
Surah Al Maun (Arabic: ٱلمَاعُون), meaning ”small kindness”, is the 107th surah of the Quran Pak. It consists of a total 7 ayats or verses and can be found in Para/juzz 30th of the Holy Quran. The name of this chapter is taken from verse 7 ” وَيَمۡنَعُونَ ٱلۡمَاعُونَ ” where there is a mention of the word ”Ma’oon”.
The verses of Surah Maun serve as a warning to those who profess to be Muslims but behave like hypocrites by neglecting their prayers, showing off, and refusing to help others—actions that are incompatible with a belief in the Hereafter.
Following main points are discussed in this surat
أَرَأَيْتَ الَّذِي يُكَذِّبُ بِالدِّينِ
فَذَٰلِكَ الَّذِي يَدُعُّ الْيَتِيمَ
وَلَا يَحُضُّ عَلَىٰ طَعَامِ الْمِسْكِينِ
فَوَيْلٌ لِّلْمُصَلِّينَ
الَّذِينَ هُمْ عَن صَلَاتِهِمْ سَاهُونَ
الَّذِينَ هُمْ يُرَاءُونَ
وَيَمْنَعُونَ الْمَاعُونَ
In the Name of Allah, the Most Compassionate, the Ever-Merciful
Did you see him who denies the Din ?
So he is one, who drives away the orphan,
And does not urge the feeding of the needy
Woe to those who pray
But are heedless of their prayers
Who show off
And who refuse to lend a worthless small object of use even on demand.
There are several forms of neglecting prayers, such as not praying regularly, not praying at the correct times, and not properly fulfilling the obligatory and necessary aspects of the prayers. Not praying together without a valid excuse, neglecting the importance of prayer, making up missed prayers in solitude, praying in front of people, etc.
Do good deeds solely for the sake of Allah (SWT): Allah (SWT) criticized the hypocrites for concealing their disbelief and displaying their good deeds to impress others. Similarly, a Muslim should scrutinize their intentions in all actions, purifying them solely for the sake of Allah (SWT), as this is the only path to receiving their reward.
Do not delay or neglect your prayers: Allah (SWT) warned of severe consequences for those who delay or neglect their prayers. A Muslim should always pray promptly upon hearing the Adhan, without hesitation.
