177. True righteousness [376] is not that you turn your faces to the east or to the west, but true righteousness is that a person who has faith [377] in Allah and in the Last Day and the angels and the Scripture and the Prophets [378] and gives from his dear wealth [379] out of love for Allah to relatives and to orphans and the needy and to travelers [380] and the beggars [381] and for freeing slaves and establishes prayer [382] and gives Zakat [383].

أَيَّامٗا مَّعۡدُودَٰتٖۚ فَمَن كَانَ مِنكُم مَّرِيضًا أَوۡ عَلَىٰ سَفَرٖ فَعِدَّةٞ مِّنۡ أَيَّامٍ أُخَرَۚ وَعَلَى ٱلَّذِينَ يُطِيقُونَهُۥ فِدۡيَةٞ طَعَامُ مِسۡكِينٖۖ فَمَن تَطَوَّعَ خَيۡرٗا فَهُوَ خَيۡرٞ لَّهُۥۚ وَأَن تَصُومُواْ خَيۡرٞ لَّكُمۡ إِن كُنتُمۡ تَعۡلَمُونَ

184. The days are counted [401], so whoever among you is ill [402], or on a journey [403], then an equal number of days (are to be made up) on other days [404], and upon those who have no strength (to fast) [405], a ransom [406] of a meal to a needy person (each day). And whoever volunteers good, it is better for him [407]. But, to fast is better for you if you only know [408].

يَسۡـَٔلُونَكَ مَاذَا يُنفِقُونَۖ قُلۡ مَآ أَنفَقۡتُم مِّنۡ خَيۡرٖ فَلِلۡوَٰلِدَيۡنِ وَٱلۡأَقۡرَبِينَ وَٱلۡيَتَٰمَىٰ وَٱلۡمَسَٰكِينِ وَٱبۡنِ ٱلسَّبِيلِۗ وَمَا تَفۡعَلُواْ مِنۡ خَيۡرٖ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ بِهِۦ عَلِيمٞ

215. They ask you (O Muhammad) what they should spend [502]. Say: "Whatever good you spend should be for parents and near relatives [503], orphans, the needy, and the wayfarers." And whatever good you do [504], surely, Allah is fully aware of it.

Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 215

۞وَٱعۡلَمُوٓاْ أَنَّمَا غَنِمۡتُم مِّن شَيۡءٖ فَأَنَّ لِلَّهِ خُمُسَهُۥ وَلِلرَّسُولِ وَلِذِي ٱلۡقُرۡبَىٰ وَٱلۡيَتَٰمَىٰ وَٱلۡمَسَٰكِينِ وَٱبۡنِ ٱلسَّبِيلِ إِن كُنتُمۡ ءَامَنتُم بِٱللَّهِ وَمَآ أَنزَلۡنَا عَلَىٰ عَبۡدِنَا يَوۡمَ ٱلۡفُرۡقَانِ يَوۡمَ ٱلۡتَقَى ٱلۡجَمۡعَانِۗ وَٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيۡءٖ قَدِيرٌ

41. And know that whatever spoils of war you take [82], then surely one-fifth of it is for Allah [83] and for the Messenger, and for his close relatives [84], and the orphans, and the needy [85], and the traveler [86], if you believe in Allah [87] and what We sent down upon Our servant on the Day of Decision [88], the day when the two groups met. And Allah has power over all things [89].

Surah Name : Al-Anfal   Surah Number : 8   Ayat Number: 41

22. And swear not by those among you who are men of excellence [40] and of means [41] against the kinsmen and the needy and the emigrants in the way of Allah, and let them forgive and overlook. Do you not love that Allah should forgive you? And Allah is Forgiving, Merciful [42].

38.Ha! You are those who are called upon to spend [92] in the Way of Allah. Then, of you some are misers[93]. And whosoever is a miser, is only a miser to his soul. And Allah is Self- Sufficient, and all of you are needy . And if you (94) turn your face, He will substitute for you another nation, and they will not be like you(95).

Surah Name : Muhammad   Surah Number : 47   Ayat Number: 38

لَّقَدۡ سَمِعَ ٱللَّهُ قَوۡلَ ٱلَّذِينَ قَالُوٓاْ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ فَقِيرٞ وَنَحۡنُ أَغۡنِيَآءُۘ سَنَكۡتُبُ مَا قَالُواْ وَقَتۡلَهُمُ ٱلۡأَنۢبِيَآءَ بِغَيۡرِ حَقّٖ وَنَقُولُ ذُوقُواْ عَذَابَ ٱلۡحَرِيقِ

وَءَاتِ ذَا ٱلۡقُرۡبَىٰ حَقَّهُۥ وَٱلۡمِسۡكِينَ وَٱبۡنَ ٱلسَّبِيلِ وَلَا تُبَذِّرۡ تَبۡذِيرًا

53. And thus We made some of them a trial for others, so that the wealthy disbelievers might say, when they see the needy Muslims, "Are these the ones whom Allah has favoured among us?" [105] Does not Allah know best those who are grateful? [106].

Surah Name : Al-Anam   Surah Number : 6   Ayat Number: 53

لَا يُؤَاخِذُكُمُ ٱللَّهُ بِٱللَّغۡوِ فِيٓ أَيۡمَٰنِكُمۡ وَلَٰكِن يُؤَاخِذُكُم بِمَا عَقَّدتُّمُ ٱلۡأَيۡمَٰنَۖ فَكَفَّـٰرَتُهُۥٓ إِطۡعَامُ عَشَرَةِ مَسَٰكِينَ مِنۡ أَوۡسَطِ مَا تُطۡعِمُونَ أَهۡلِيكُمۡ أَوۡ كِسۡوَتُهُمۡ أَوۡ تَحۡرِيرُ رَقَبَةٖۖ فَمَن لَّمۡ يَجِدۡ فَصِيَامُ ثَلَٰثَةِ أَيَّامٖۚ ذَٰلِكَ كَفَّـٰرَةُ أَيۡمَٰنِكُمۡ إِذَا حَلَفۡتُمۡۚ وَٱحۡفَظُوٓاْ أَيۡمَٰنَكُمۡۚ كَذَٰلِكَ يُبَيِّنُ ٱللَّهُ لَكُمۡ ءَايَٰتِهِۦ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تَشۡكُرُونَ

89. Allah does not hold you accountable for oaths taken by misunderstanding [245], but He will hold you responsible for oaths which you have made binding [246]. Then, the penalty for breaking such oaths is the feeding of ten needy people with the average food with which you feed your families, or clothing them, or freeing a slave. And whoever does not find [the means] — then a fast of three days [247]. This is the alternative penalty for your oaths when you have sworn. And guard your oaths [248]. Thus, Allah explains His signs to you so that you may be grateful.

۞إِنَّمَا ٱلصَّدَقَٰتُ لِلۡفُقَرَآءِ وَٱلۡمَسَٰكِينِ وَٱلۡعَٰمِلِينَ عَلَيۡهَا وَٱلۡمُؤَلَّفَةِ قُلُوبُهُمۡ وَفِي ٱلرِّقَابِ وَٱلۡغَٰرِمِينَ وَفِي سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ وَٱبۡنِ ٱلسَّبِيلِۖ فَرِيضَةٗ مِّنَ ٱللَّهِۗ وَٱللَّهُ عَلِيمٌ حَكِيمٞ,

60. The poor due is only for those who are poor and needy, and those who collect [162] it, and for those whose hearts are to be conciliated [163] for Islam, and for the freeing [164] of slaves and for debtors and for spending in the way of Allah [165], and for the traveler [166]. This has been ordained by Allah [167]. And Allah is All-Knowing, Wise.

Surah Name : At-Tawbah   Surah Number : 9   Ayat Number: 60

فَـَٔاتِ ذَا ٱلۡقُرۡبَىٰ حَقَّهُۥ وَٱلۡمِسۡكِينَ وَٱبۡنَ ٱلسَّبِيلِۚ ذَٰلِكَ خَيۡرٞ لِّلَّذِينَ يُرِيدُونَ وَجۡهَ ٱللَّهِۖ وَأُوْلَـٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلۡمُفۡلِحُونَ
