Transliteration:( Allazeena hum yuraaa'oon )
6. There are a few ways of forgetting Salaah. Not performing it sometimes, not performing it in congregation without any valid reason; not performing it regularly, not performing it in the mosque without any valid reason; not performing it on its prescribed time, not performing it in its correct manner; not performing it with devotion; not performing it with careful consideration and to perform it lazily and in an indifferent way.
For this reason the jurists say that it is forbidden to perform Salaah by folding the sleeves, placing a handkerchief over the head or shoulder or leaving the shirt buttons open, as this is a sign of laziness and indifference. It should be remembered that Salaah is the worship of Allah Almighty, a pillar of Islam and a means of obtaining reward for its performer. It is linked in three ways; linked to Allah Almighty, to the subservience of Islam and to the person.

Please refer to Surah Maun ayat 1 which provides the complete commentary from verse 1 through 7.
(107:6) those who do good (in order) to be seen,[10]
10. This can be an independent sentence as well as one relating to the preceding sentence. In the first case, it would mean that they do not perform any act of goodness with a pure intention for the sake of God, but whatever they do, they do to be seen of others so that they are praised, are considered righteous, their good act is publicized and its advantage and benefit accrues to them here in the world. In the second case, the meaning would be that they pray to be seen. The commentators generally have preferred the second meaning, for at first sight it appears that it relates to the preceding sentence. Ibn Abbas says: It implies the hypocrites who prayed to be seen. They performed the Prayer if there was somebody to see them, but did not perform it if there was nobody to see them. In another tradition his words are to the effect: If they were alone they did not pray; but if there were others, they prayed. (Ibn Jarir, Ibn al-Mundhir, Ibn Abi Hatim , Ibn Marduyah, Baihaqi , in Ash-Shuab). In the Quran the hypocrites have been described thus: When they rise up for the salat, they go reluctantly to it, merely to be seen of people and they remember Allah but little. (Surah An-Nisa, Ayat 142).
