اِنَّ الْمُنَافِق۪ينَ يُخَادِعُونَ اللّٰهَ وَهُوَ خَادِعُهُمْۚ وَاِذَا قَامُٓوا اِلَى الصَّلٰوةِ قَامُوا كُسَالٰىۙ يُرَٓاؤُ۫نَ النَّاسَ وَلَا يَذْكُرُونَ اللّٰهَ اِلَّا قَل۪يلًاۘ ۝١٤٢

142Surely the two-faced hypocrites, who appear to believe though they do not believe, try in this way to deceive Allah. In fact, it is not Allah but themselves they deceive. When they rise for prayer, they rise reluctantly and turn the prayer into a show for people; they think of Allah and remember Him very little.
