< The Qur'an (Palmer)
​

The Chapter of ‘ Necessaries.’

(CVII. Place of origin doubtful.)

In the name of the merciful and compassionate God.

Hast thou considered him who calls the judgment a lie? He it is who pushes the orphan away ; and urges not (others) to feed the poor.

But woe to those who pray [5] and who are careless in their prayers,

Who pretend and withhold necessaries[1].

  1. ↑ Or, ‘alms.’ The word might be rendered ‘resources.’
