يَا أَيُّهَا
الَّذِينَ
آمَنُوا
إِذَا
نَاجَيْتُمُ
الرَّسُولَ
فَقَدِّمُوا
بَيْنَ
يَدَيْ
نَجْوَاكُمْ
صَدَقَةً
ذَلِكَ
خَيْرٌ
لَّكُمْ
وَأَطْهَرُ
فَإِن
لَّمْ
تَجِدُوا
فَإِنَّ
اللَّهَ
غَفُورٌ
رَّحِيمٌ

O ye who believe! When ye consult the Messenger in private, spend something in charity before your private consultation. That will be best for you, and most conducive to purity (of conduct). But if ye find not (the wherewithal), Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
— Abdullah Yusufali
O you who have faith! When you converse privately with the Apostle, offer a charity before your private talk. That is better for you and purer. But if you cannot afford [to make the offering], then Allah is indeed all-forgiving, all-merciful.
