اللَّهَ
قَرْضًا
حَسَنًا
فَيُضَاعِفَهُ
لَهُ
أَضْعَافًا
كَثِيرَةً
وَاللَّهُ
يَقْبِضُ
وَيَبْسُطُ
وَإِلَيْهِ
تُرْجَعُونَ

Who is it that will lend Allah a good loan that He may multiply it for him severalfold? Allah tightens and expands [the means of life], and to Him you shall be brought back.
— Ali Quli Qarai
Who is he that will loan to Allah a beautiful loan, which Allah will double unto his credit and multiply many times? It is Allah that giveth (you) Want or plenty, and to Him shall be your return.
