النفاق والمنافقين
58 verses in 9 surahs · 17 subtopics
The Quran draws here the portrait of the hypocrites: repeated oaths to cover their lies, prayer performed for show, and positions wavering between disbelief and faith. The verses recount their conduct at the battles of Uhud and of the Confederates and in the affair of the slander, their evasion of jihad and their alliance with the enemies of their religion.

مَثَلُهُمْ كَمَثَلِ ٱلَّذِى ٱسْتَوْقَدَ نَارًا فَلَمَّآ أَضَآءَتْ مَا حَوْلَهُۥ ذَهَبَ ٱللَّهُ بِنُورِهِمْ وَتَرَكَهُمْ فِى ظُلُمَٰتٍ لَّا يُبْصِرُونَ ١٧
Their example is that of one who kindled a fire, but when it illuminated what was around him, Allāh took away their light and left them in darkness [so] they could not see.
