THE CHAPTER OF 'NECESSARIES.'

(CVII. Place of origin doubtful.)

IN the name of the merciful and compassionate God.
Hast thou considered him who calls the judgment a lie? He it is who pushes the orphan away; and urges not (others) to feed the poor.
But we to those who pray [5] and who are careless in their prayers,
Who pretend and withhold necessaries 2.
