وَآتُوا
الْيَتَامَى
أَمْوَالَهُمْ
وَلَا
تَتَبَدَّلُوا
الْخَبِيثَ
بِالطَّيِّبِ
وَلَا
تَأْكُلُوا
أَمْوَالَهُمْ
إِلَى
أَمْوَالِكُمْ
إِنَّهُ
كَانَ
حُوبًا
كَبِيرًا
wa-ʾātū l-yatāmā ʾamwālahum wa-lā tatabaddalū l-khabītha bi-ṭ-ṭayyibi wa-lā taʾkulū ʾamwālahum ʾilā ʾamwālikum ʾinnahū kāna ḥūban kabīran
Give the orphans their property, and do not replace the good with the bad, and do not eat up their property [by mingling it] with your own property, for that is indeed a great sin.
— Ali Quli Qarai
To orphans restore their property (When they reach their age), nor substitute (your) worthless things for (their) good ones; and devour not their substance (by mixing it up) with your own. For this is indeed a great sin.
