مَّثَلُ
Example
(of) those who
يُنف ِقُونَ
spend
أَمۡوٰ لَهُمۡ
their wealth
فِى
in
سَبِيلِ
(the) way
(of) Allah
كَمَثَلِ
(is) like
حَبَّةٍ
a grain
أَنۢب َتَتۡ
which grows
سَبۡ عَ
seven
سَنَابِلَ
ears
فِى
in
كُلِّ
each
سُنۢب ُلَةٍ
ear
hundred
حَبَّةٍۗ
grain(s)
And Allah
يُضَـٰ عِفُ
gives manifold
لِمَن
to whom
He wills
وَٱ للَّهُ
And Allah
وٰ سِعٌ
(is) All-Encompassing
عَلِي مٌ
٢٦١All-Knowing
The example of those who spend their wealth in the way of Allāh is like a seed [of grain] which grows seven spikes; in each spike is a hundred grains. And Allāh multiplies [His reward] for whom He wills. And Allāh is all-Encompassing and Knowing.
2:262
ٱلَّذِينَ
Those who
يُنف ِقُونَ
spend
أَمۡوٰ لَهُمۡ
their wealth
فِى
in
سَبِيلِ
(the) way
(of) Allah
ثُمّ َ
then
لَا
not
يُتۡبِعُونَ
they follow
مَآ
what
أَنف َقُواۡ
they spend
مَنًّا
(with) reminders of generosity
and not
أَذًىۙ
hurt
for them
أَجۡ رُهُمۡ
their reward

خَوۡفٌ
fear
عَلَيۡهِمۡ
on them
وَلَا

هُمۡ
they
يَحۡزَنُو نَ
٢٦٢will grieve
Those who spend their wealth in the way of Allāh and then do not follow up what they have spent with reminders [of it] or [other] injury will have their reward with their Lord, and there will be no fear concerning them, nor will they grieve.
2:263
۞قَوۡلٌ
A word
kind
and (seeking) forgiveness
خَيۡرٌ
(are) better
than
a charity
followed [it]
أَذًىۗ
(by) hurt
And Allah
غَنِىٌّ
(is) All-Sufficient
حَلِي مٌ
٢٦٣All-Forbearing
Kind speech and forgiveness are better than charity followed by injury. And Allāh is Free of need and Forbearing.
2:264
يَـٰٓ أَيُّهَا
O you
who
ءَامَنُواۡ
believe[d]
لَا
(Do) not
تُبۡ طِلُواۡ
render in vain
صَدَقَـٰ تِكُم
your charities
with reminders (of it)
وَٱ لۡأَذَىٰ
or [the] hurt
كَٱ لَّذِى
like the one who
يُنف ِقُ
spends
مَالَهُۥ
his wealth
رِئَا ٓءَ
(to) be seen
(by) the people
وَلَا
and (does) not
يُؤۡمِنُ
believe
بِٱ للَّهِ
in Allah
وَٱ لۡيَوۡمِ
and the Day
[the] Last
فَمَثَلُهُۥ
Then his example
كَمَثَلِ
(is) like
صَفۡوَانٍ
(that of a) smooth rock
عَلَيۡهِ
upon it
تُرَابٌ
(is) dust
then fell on it
وَابِلٌ
heavy rain
then left it
صَلۡدًاۖ
bare
Not
يَقۡ دِرُونَ
they have control
عَلَىٰ
on
شَىۡءٍ
anything
of what
كَسَبُواۡۗ
they (have) earned
وَٱ للَّهُ
And Allah
لَا
(does) not
يَهۡدِى
guide
the people
[the] disbelieving
O you who have believed, do not invalidate your charities with reminders [of it] or injury as does one who spends his wealth [only] to be seen by the people and does not believe in Allāh and the Last Day. His example is like that of a [large] smooth stone upon which is dust and is hit by a downpour that leaves it bare. They are unable [to keep] anything of what they have earned. And Allāh does not guide the disbelieving people.
2:265
وَمَثَلُ
And (the) example
(of) those who
يُنف ِقُونَ
spend
أَمۡوٰ لَهُمُ
their wealth
seeking
مَرۡضَاتِ
(the) pleasure
(of) Allah
وَتَثۡبِيتًا
and certainty
from
أَنف ُسِهِمۡ
their (inner) souls
كَمَثَلِ
(is) like
جَنّ َةِۭ
a garden
on a height
أَصَابَهَا
fell on it
وَابِلٌ
heavy rain
so it yielded
أُكُلَهَا
its harvest
ضِعۡفَيۡنِ
double
فَإِن
Then if
(does) not
يُصِبۡ هَا
fall (on) it
وَابِلٌ
heavy rain
then a drizzle
And Allah
بِمَا
of what
تَعۡمَلُونَ
you do
بَصِي رٌ
٢٦٥(is) All-Seer
And the example of those who spend their wealth seeking means to the approval of Allāh and assuring [reward for] themselves is like a garden on high ground which is hit by a downpour - so it yields its fruits in double. And [even] if it is not hit by a downpour, then a drizzle [is sufficient]. And Allāh, of what you do, is Seeing.
2:266
أَيَوَدُّ
Would like
أَحَدُكُمۡ
any of you
أَن
that
it be
لَهُۥ
for him
جَنّ َةٌ
a garden
of
date-palms
and grapevines
flowing
مِن
[from]
underneath it
the rivers
لَهُۥ
for him
فِيهَا
in it
مِن
of
all (kinds)
(of) [the] fruits
وَأَصَابَهُ
and strikes him
[the] old age
وَلَهُۥ
and [for] his
ذُرِّيَّةٌ
children
(are) weak
فَأَصَابَهَآ
then falls on it
إِعۡصَارٌ
whirlwind
in it
نَارٌ
(is) fire
then it is burnt
كَذٰ لِكَ
Thus
يُبَيِّنُ
makes clear
Allah
لَكُمُ
for you
(His) Signs
لَعَلَّكُمۡ
so that you may
تَتَفَكَّرُو نَ
٢٦٦ponder
Would one of you like to have a garden of palm trees and grapevines underneath which rivers flow in which he has from every fruit? But he is afflicted with old age and has weak [i.e., immature] offspring, and it is hit by a whirlwind containing fire and is burned. Thus does Allāh make clear to you [His] verses that you might give thought.
