يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ لَا تُلْهِكُمْ أَمْوَٰلُكُمْ وَلَآ أَوْلَٰدُكُمْ عَن ذِكْرِ ٱللَّهِ وَمَن يَفْعَلْ ذَٰلِكَ فَأُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلْخَٰسِرُونَ
O you who have believed, let not your wealth and your children divert you from remembrance of Allah. And whoever does that - then those are the losers.
Revelation context of the surah
Surah-wideSurah al-Munafiqun is Medinan, revealed during or immediately after the campaign against Banu Mustaliq (al-Muraysi'), in 5 or 6 AH. On that campaign the leader of the hypocrites, Abdullah ibn Ubayy, said words to the effect that 'when we return to Medina, the mightier will expel the weaker'; Zayd ibn Arqam, who heard him, reported it to the Prophet, and when Ibn Ubayy denied it the surah came down confirming Zayd. The surah exposes the true character of the hypocrites and their false oaths.
