يَٓا اَيُّهَا الَّذ۪ينَ اٰمَنُٓوا اَنْفِقُوا مِنْ طَيِّبَاتِ مَا كَسَبْتُمْ وَمِمَّٓا اَخْرَجْنَا لَكُمْ مِنَ الْاَرْضِۖ وَلَا تَيَمَّمُوا الْخَب۪يثَ مِنْهُ تُنْفِقُونَ وَلَسْتُمْ بِاٰخِذ۪يهِ اِلَّٓا اَنْ تُغْمِضُوا ف۪يهِۜ وَاعْلَمُٓوا اَنَّ اللّٰهَ غَنِيٌّ حَم۪يدٌ

Ya ayyuha allatheena amanooanfiqoo min tayyibati ma kasabtum wamimmaakhrajna lakum mina al-ardi wala tayammamooalkhabeetha minhu tunfiqoona walastum bi-akhitheehiilla an tughmidoo feehi waAAlamoo anna Allahaghaniyyun hameed

O you who heed warning: spend of the good things you have earned, and of what We have brought forth for you from the earth. And resort not to the bad thereof, to spend thereof, when you would not take it save you closed an eye to it; and know that God is free from need and praiseworthy.
