وفي أمْوَالِهِمْ حَقٌّ لِلسَّابِلِ وَالْمَحْرُومِ. 86 الَّذِينَ يُنْفِقُونَ في السَّرَّاءِ وَالضَّرَّاء : وَانْفَقُوْا مِمَّا رَزَقْنَهُمْ سِرًّا وَ عَلَانِيَةً : 88 87 اِنَّمَا الصَّدَقْتُ لِلْفُقَرَاءِ وَالْمَسْكِينِ وَالْعُمِلِينَ عَلَيْهَا وَالْمُؤَلَّفَةِ قُلُوبُهُمْ وَ فِي الرِّقَابِ وَ الْغُرِمِينَ وَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ وَابْنِ السَّبِيلِ فَرِيضَةٌ مِنَ اللهِ وَاللهُ عَلِيمٌ حَكِيمُ 90 91 لَن تَنالُوا الْبِرَّ حَتَّى تُنْفِقُوا مِمَّا تُحِبُّونَ. وَاتِ ذَا الْقُرْبى حَقَّهُ وَالْمِسْكِينَ وَابْنَ السَّيْلِ وَلَا تُبَذِّرْ تَبْذِيرًا. وَبِالْوَالِدَيْنِ إِحْسَانًا وَبِذِي الْقُرْبى وَالْيَتَى وَالْمَسْكِينِ وَالْجَارِ ذِي الْقُرْبى وَالْجَارِ الْجُنُبِ وَالصَّاحِبِ بِالْجَنْبِ وَابْنِ السَّبِيْلِ وَمَا مَلَكَتْ أَيْمَانُكُمْ إِنَّ اللهَ لَا يُحِبُّ مَنْ كَانَ مُخْتَالًا فَخُوْرَالُ الَّذِينَ 67 86. And in their wealth was a share for one who asked for help and for one who could not. (The Holy Quran, adh-Dhāriyāt 51:20) 87. Those who spend in prosperity and adversity, (The Holy Quran, Al-e- Imran 3:135) 88. And spend out of that with which We have provided them, secretly and openly, (The Holy Quran, ar-Ra'd 13:23) 89. The alms are only for the poor and the needy, and for those employed in connection therewith, and for those whose hearts are to be reconciled, and for the freeing of slaves, and for those in debt, and for the cause of Allāh, and for the wayfarer—an ordinance from Allāh. And Allāh is All-Knowing, Wise. (The Holy Quran, at-Taubah 9:60) 90. Never shall you attain to righteousness unless you spend out of that which you love; (The Holy Quran, Al-e-Imran 3:93) 91. And give you to the kinsman his due, and to the poor and the wayfarer, and squander not your wealth extravagantly. (The Holy Quran, Bani Isrā'īl 17:27)
