The surah discusses the character of those who claim to be Muslims but are oblivious of the hereafter. These people deprive the orphans of their rights, are heedless to the dues of the destitute, and pray without holding Alláh in remembrance, forgetting the objective behind prayer. Their charitable acts are a display of their false piety, since they do not give for the love of Alláh . It is narrated from Imam Muhammad al-Baqir (as) that if a person recites this sūrah in any of his prayers, then they will be accepted. The sins of those who recite this sūrah are forgiven. If recited a hundred times after the Fajr prayers, one remains safe until the next day’s Fajr time. Imam Ja’far as-Sadiq (as) said that if a person recites sūrah al-Maa’un, 41 times every day, he/she and his family will remain free from being dependant on others for their sustenance. (It is recommended that salawaat should also be recited ten times, before and after the recitation.) Show Less >>
