Surah Al-Ahzab Ayah 19

Al-Ahzab · Ayah 19 · Juz 21 · Page 420

أَشِحَّةً عَلَيۡكُمۡۖ فَإِذَا جَآءَ ٱلۡخَوۡفُ رَأَيۡتَهُمۡ يَنظُرُونَ إِلَيۡكَ تَدُورُ أَعۡيُنُهُمۡ كَٱلَّذِي يُغۡشَىٰ عَلَيۡهِ مِنَ ٱلۡمَوۡتِۖ فَإِذَا ذَهَبَ ٱلۡخَوۡفُ سَلَقُوكُم بِأَلۡسِنَةٍ حِدَادٍ أَشِحَّةً عَلَى ٱلۡخَيۡرِۚ أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ لَمۡ يُؤۡمِنُواْ فَأَحۡبَطَ ٱللَّهُ أَعۡمَٰلَهُمۡۚ وَكَانَ ذَٰلِكَ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ يَسِيرٗا ١٩

Ashiḥḥatan ʿalaykum, fa idhā jāʾal-khawfu raʾaytahum yanẓurūna ilayka tadūru aʿyunuhum kal-ladhī yughshā ʿalayhi minal-mawt, fa idhā dhahabal-khawfu salaqūkum biʾalsinatin ḥidādin ashiḥḥatan ʿalal-khayr, ulāʾika lam yuʾminū fa aḥbaṭallāhu aʿmālahum, wa kāna dhālika ʿalallāhi yasīrā.

Indisposed1 toward you. And when fear comes, you see them looking at you, their eyes revolving like one being overcome by death. But when fear departs, they lash you with sharp tongues, indisposed toward [any] good. Those have not believed, so Allāh has rendered their deeds worthless, and ever is that, for Allāh, easy.

Translation: Sahih International

Footnotes (1)
  1. Literally, "stingy," i.e., unwilling to offer any help.
