58:13

أَأَشْفَقْتُمْ

أَن

تُقَدِّمُوا

بَيْنَ

يَدَيْ

نَجْوَاكُمْ

صَدَقَاتٍ

فَإِذْ

لَمْ

تَفْعَلُوا

وَتَابَ

اللَّهُ

عَلَيْكُمْ

فَأَقِيمُوا

الصَّلَاةَ

وَآتُوا

الزَّكَاةَ

وَأَطِيعُوا

اللَّهَ

وَرَسُولَهُ

وَاللَّهُ

خَبِيرٌ

بِمَا

تَعْمَلُونَ

ʾa-ʾashfaqtum ʾan tuqaddimū bayna yaday najwākum ṣadaqātin fa-ʾidh lam tafʿalū wa-tāba llāhu ʿalaykum fa-ʾaqīmū ṣ-ṣalāta wa-ʾātū z-zakāta wa-ʾaṭīʿū llāha wa-rasūlahū wa-llāhu khabīrun bi-mā taʿmalūna

Were you afraid that giving in charity before your consultation would make you poor? Since you did not offer such charity, God forgave you for this. At least be steadfast in prayer, pay the religious tax, and obey God and His Messenger. God is Well Aware of what you do.
