In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

1. When the hypocrites come to you (O Muhammad ), they say: “We bear witness that you are indeed the Messenger of Allah.” Allah knows that you are indeed His Messenger and Allah bears witness that the hypocrites are liars indeed. 2. They have made their oaths a screen (for their hypocrisy). Thus they hinder (men) from the Path of Allah. Verily, evil is what they used to do. 3. That is because they believed, then disbelieved, therefore their hearts are sealed, so they understand not. 4. And when you look at them, their bodies please you; and when they speak, you listen to their words. They are as blocks of wood propped up. They think that every cry is against them. They are the enemies, so beware of them. May Allah curse them! How are they denying (or deviating from) the Right Path. 5. And when it is said to them: “Come, so that the Messenger of Allah may ask forgiveness from Allah for you”, they turn aside their heads, and you would see them turning away their faces in pride. 6. It is equal to them whether you (Muhammad ) ask forgiveness or ask not forgiveness for them. Verily, Allah guides not the people who are the Fasiqin (rebellious, disobedient to Allah) . 7. They are the ones who say: “Spend not on those who are with Allah’s Messenger, until they desert him.” And to Allah belong the treasures of the heavens and the earth, but the hypocrites comprehend not. 8. They (hyprocrites) say: “If we return to Al-Madinah, indeed the more honourable (‘Abdullah bin Ubai bin Salul, the chief of hyprocrites at Al-Madinah) will expel therefrom the meaner (i.e. Allah’s Messenger ).” But honour, power and glory belong to Allah, His Messenger (Muhammad ), and to the believers, but the hypocrites know not. 9. O you who believe! Let not your properties or your children divert you from the remembrance of Allah. And whosoever does that, then they are the losers. 10. And spend (in charity) of that with which We have provided you, before death comes to one of you and he says: “My Lord! If only You would give me respite for a little while (i.e. return to the worldly life), then I should give Sadaqah (i.e. Zakat) of my wealth , and be among the righteous [i.e. perform Hajj (pilgrimage to Makkah)]. 11. And Allah grants respite to none when his appointed time (death) comes. And Allah is All-Aware of what you do.

Summary:

Surah Al-Munafiqun addresses the hypocrisy among some of the believers during the time of the Prophet Muhammad. It discusses their deceitful behavior, where they would outwardly profess faith but secretly harbor disbelief and undermine the Muslim community. The Surah emphasizes the consequences of hypocrisy and the importance of sincere faith and actions. It serves as a warning against those who outwardly align themselves with Islam while working against its principles.
