Enyi mlio amini! Msiharibu sadaka zenu kwa masimbulizi na maudhi, kama anaye (2:264)

﴿يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لَا تُبْطِلُوا صَدَقَاتِكُم بِالْمَنِّ وَالْأَذَىٰ كَالَّذِي يُنفِقُ مَالَهُ رِئَاءَ النَّاسِ وَلَا يُؤْمِنُ بِاللَّهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الْآخِرِ ۖ فَمَثَلُهُ كَمَثَلِ صَفْوَانٍ عَلَيْهِ تُرَابٌ فَأَصَابَهُ وَابِلٌ فَتَرَكَهُ صَلْدًا ۖ لَّا يَقْدِرُونَ عَلَىٰ شَيْءٍ مِّمَّا كَسَبُوا ۗ وَاللَّهُ لَا يَهْدِي الْقَوْمَ الْكَافِرِينَ﴾
[ البقرة: 264]

Enyi mlio amini! Msiharibu sadaka zenu kwa masimbulizi na maudhi, kama anaye toa mali yake kwa kuwaonyesha watu, wala hamuamini Mwenyezi Mungu wala Siku ya Mwisho. Basi mfano wake ni kama mfano wa jabali ambalo juu yake pana udongo, kisha likapigwa na mvua kubwa, ikaliacha tupu. Basi hawatakuwa na uweza wowote kwa walivyo chuma. Na Mwenyezi Mungu hawaongoi watu makafiri.

Swahili Translation - Al-Barwani

English - Sahih International

O you who have believed, do not invalidate your charities with reminders or injury as does one who spends his wealth [only] to be seen by the people and does not believe in Allah 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 Allah does not guide the disbelieving people.

Tafsiri ya maana yake kwenye lugha ya Kiswahili

Enyi mlio amini! Msiharibu sadaka zenu kwa masimbulizi na maudhi, kama anaye toa mali yake kwa kuwaonyesha watu, wala hamuamini Mwenyezi Mungu wala Siku ya Mwisho. Basi mfano wake ni kama mfano wa jabali ambalo juu yake pana udongo, kisha likapigwa na mvua kubwa, ikaliacha tupu. Basi hawatakuwa na uweza wowote kwa walivyo chuma. Na Mwenyezi Mungu hawaongoi watu makafiri.

Enyi Waumini! Msipoteze thawabu za sadaka zenu kwa kudhihirisha kuwa mnawafadhili wenye haja na kuwaudhi. Hivyo mnakuwa kama wale wanao toa mali zao kwa ajili ya kutafuta umaarufu na kupenda wasifiwe na watu., nao hata hawamuamini Mwenyezi Mungu wala Siku ya Mwisho. Hali ya mwenye kuonyesha kutoa kwake ni hali ya jiwe manga lenye udongo. Likateremkiwa na mvua kubwa, udongo wote ukaondoka. Basi kama mvua kubwa inavyo chukua udongo wenye mbolea likabaki jiwe tupu, basi kadhaalika masimbulizi, na maudhi, na kuonyesha watu huharibu thawabu za sadaka. Hayo hayamnufaishi mtu, na hizo ni sifa za makafiri. Epukaneni nazo! Kwani Mwenyezi Mungu hawawafikishi makafiri kupata kheri na uwongozi mwema.
