يَسْأَلُونَكَ
مَاذَا
يُنفِقُونَ
قُلْ
مَا
أَنفَقْتُم
مِّنْ
خَيْرٍ
فَلِلْوَالِدَيْنِ
وَالْأَقْرَبِينَ
وَالْيَتَامَى
وَالْمَسَاكِينِ
وَابْنِ
السَّبِيلِ
وَمَا
تَفْعَلُوا
مِنْ
خَيْرٍ
فَإِنَّ
اللَّهَ
بِهِ
عَلِيمٌ

They ask thee what they should spend (In charity). Say: Whatever ye spend that is good, is for parents and kindred and orphans and those in want and for wayfarers. And whatever ye do that is good, -Allah knoweth it well.
— Abdullah Yusufali
They ask you as to what they should spend. Say, ‘Let whatever wealth you spend be for the parents, relatives, orphans, the needy, and the traveller.’ Allah indeed knows whatever good you do.
