THE CHAPTER OF THE 'NECESSARIES'

(CVII. Place of origin doubtful.)

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 woe to those who pray and who are careless in their prayers,

Who pretend and withhold necessaries.
