The surah's big idea

We pray on time and help the orphan, the poor and our neighbours

What did I learn from the surah?

  1. 1. The orphan and the poor
    Have you seen the one who denies the Day of Judgement? He is the one who pushes the orphan away harshly and keeps back his right, and does not urge others to feed the poor, so how would he feed them himself?
  2. 2. Prayer on time
    So a severe punishment awaits those who pray while careless about their prayer: they don't perform it properly and don't pray it on time.
  3. 3. Small help
    They are the ones who do good only so people will see them, and who refuse to lend their neighbours simple things that cost them nothing to lend, like a pot or a bowl.
