Not upon you, [O Muhammad], is [responsibility for] their guidance, but Allah (2:272)

Almuntakhab Fi Tafsir Alquran Alkarim

It is not your responsibility, Muhammad, to guide the strayed to the path of righteousness but it is Allah Who touches the hearts of whom He will with His divine hand opening their minds’ eyes to His path of righteousness. And whatever you spend in divine service reflects piety in your deeds and it is but an advantage to you, that is if what you spend is truly intended to fulfil your obligation to Allah and to satisfy your conscience and hearts. And whatever you spend in benevolence shall be reimbursed in your favour and you shall not be wronged

Tafseer Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi

(2:272) O Prophet, you are not responsible for their guidance; Allah Himself shows guidance to anyone He pleases. And whatever wealth you spend in charity, it is for your own good. As you spend of your wealth to win Allah's pleasure, you will be given full reward for whatever you spend and you will not be deprived in the least of your rightful due. *313

*313). In the beginning Muslims tended to hesitate in helping either their non-Muslim relatives or other non-Muslims who were in need. They thought that helping Muslims only constituted 'spending in the way of Allah'. This verse rejects this attitude. The purpose of this verse is to point out that Muslims are not responsible for forcing true guidance down the throats of people; conveying the message of Truth to people absolves them of the obligation incumbent upon them. It is, then, for God either to favour the recipients of the message with true perception or not. In addition Muslims should not shrink from helping their relatives in the affairs of the world on the ground that they are not following the true guidance; they will he rewarded by God for whatever help they render to needy persons for the sake of God.

لوگوں کو ہدایت بخش دینے کی ذمے داری تم پر نہیں ہے ہدایت تو اللہ ہی جسے چاہتا ہے بخشتا ہے اور خیرات میں جو مال تم خرچ کرتے ہو وہ تمہارے اپنے لیے بھلا ہے آخر تم اسی لیے تو خرچ کرتے ہو کہ اللہ کی رضا حاصل ہو تو جو کچھ مال تم خیرات میں خرچ کرو گے، اس کا پورا پورا اجر تمہیں دیا جائے گا اور تمہاری حق تلفی ہرگز نہ ہوگی
