Surah Maun - 100 Times
Surah Maun
Surah Maun (سورة الماعون) or Surah Ara’aital Lazhi (سورة أرأیت الذي) or Surah al-Din (سورة الدین) as it is also known as one of the chapters of the 30th part of the Quran and addresses the important topic of those who deny Qiyamah which is one of the principal beliefs of Islam. The verses serve as a warning to these people.
************Some facts about Surah Maun*************
Surah Maun or Ara’aital Lazhi or al-Din is the 107th chapter of the Quran and focuses on giving us the attributes of those who deny Reckoning and the Hereafter. Even though it is the Prophet God is addressing in the chapter, the verses, in fact, include all people as its addressees and the meanings are for everyone. The verses serve as a warning to those who claim to Muslims apparently but in their hearts are actually hypocrites and perform actions for other than God.
*******************Benefits of Reciting Surah Maun *******************
The Prophet (peace be on him and his household) is narrated to have said:
Allah will forgive the sins of whoever recites it, and he will be regarded as having paid his zakat.
Ja‘far bin Muhammad al-Sadiq (peace be on him) has said regarding this chapter:
If someone recites it in his obligatory and optional prayers, Allah will accept his prayers and fast and will not try him about what he did in the short life of this world.
Summary of Surah Maun
The chapter addresses the Prophet but includes all people as those who are addressed by these verses and mentions some of the attributes of those who deny the Day of Reckoning. These attributes are: driving away orphans with force, not encouraging others to feed the needy, being heedless of prayers, and showing off and holding back aid from those who need it. One of the important matters that these verses indicate is hypocrisy, the opposite of which is sincerity and as a result, a hypocrite is also denying the Hereafter due to his actions.
