Translation of Verse 267-273

267. O believers! Donate from the best of what you have earned and of what We have produced for you from the earth. Do not pick out worthless things for donation, which you yourselves would only accept with closed eyes. And know that Allah is Self-Sufficient, Praiseworthy.

268. The Devil threatens you with ˹the prospect of˺ poverty and bids you to the shameful deed ˹of stinginess˺, while Allah promises you forgiveness and ˹great˺ bounties from Him. And Allah is All-Bountiful, All-Knowing.

269. Allah grants wisdom to whoever He wills. And whoever is granted wisdom is certainly blessed with a great privilege. But none will be mindful ˹of this˺ except people of reason.

270. Whatever charities you give or vows you make are surely known to Allah. And the wrongdoers will have no helpers.

271. To give charity publicly is good, but to give to the poor privately is better for you, and will absolve you of your sins. And Allah is All-Aware of what you do. 116

272. You are not responsible for people's guidance ˹O Prophet˺-it is Allah Who guides whoever He wills. Whatever you ˹believers˺ spend in charity, it is for your own good-as long as you do so seeking the pleasure of Allah. 117 Whatever you donate will be paid back to you in full, and you will not be wronged.

273. ˹Charity is˺ for the needy who are too engaged in the cause of Allah to move about in the land ˹for work˺. Those unfamiliar with their situation will think they are not in need ˹of charity˺ because they do not beg. You can recognize them by their appearance. They do not beg people persistently. Whatever you give in charity is certainly well known to Allah.


Commentary

116. Donations for a public cause may be done openly to encourage others to donate, whereas it is recommended to give charity to the poor secretly.

117. lit., seeking the Face of Allah.
