59:9

وَالَّذِينَ

تَبَوَّءُوا

الدَّارَ

وَالْإِيمَانَ

مِن

قَبْلِهِمْ

يُحِبُّونَ

مَنْ

هَاجَرَ

إِلَيْهِمْ

وَلَا

يَجِدُونَ

فِي

صُدُورِهِمْ

حَاجَةً

مِّمَّا

أُوتُوا

وَيُؤْثِرُونَ

عَلَى

أَنفُسِهِمْ

وَلَوْ

كَانَ

بِهِمْ

خَصَاصَةٌ

وَمَن

يُوقَ

شُحَّ

نَفْسِهِ

فَأُولَئِكَ

هُمُ

الْمُفْلِحُونَ

Those who established a community center and embraced the faith before the arrival of the immigrants love those who have come to their town. They are not jealous of what is given to the immigrants. They give preference to them over themselves - even concerning the things that they themselves urgently need. Whoever controls his greed will have everlasting happiness.
