The Meaning of the Glorious Koran (1930)/Small Kindnesses
SÛRAH CVII
Al Ma'ûn takes its name from a word in the last verse.
An early Meccan revelation.
SMALL KINDNESSES
Revealed at Mecca
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.
1 Hast thou observed him who belieth religion?
2 That is he who repelleth the orphan,
3 And urgeth not the feeding of the needy.
4 Ah, woe unto worshippers
5 Who are heedless of their prayer;
6 Who would be seen (at worship)
7 Yet refuse small kindnesses!
