Sura Al-Taubah from 55 to 61


55. So let not their wealth nor their children amaze you ( O Muhammad ( saas ) ) ; in reality Allâh’s Plan is to punish them with these things in the life of this world, and that their souls shall depart ( die ) while they are disbelievers.
56. They swear by Allâh that they are truly of you while they are not of you, but they are a people ( hypocrites ) who are afraid ( that you may kill them ) .
57. Should they find a refuge, or caves, or a place of concealment, they would turn straightway thereto with a swift rush.
58. And of them are some who accuse you ( O Muhammad ( saas ) ) in the matter of ( the distribution of ) the alms. If they are given part thereof, they are pleased, but if they are not given thereof, behold! They are enraged! [ 1 ]
59. Would that they were contented with what Allâh and His Messenger ( ( saas ) ) gave them and had said: « Allâh is Sufficient for us. Allâh will give us of His Bounty, and so will His Messenger ( from alms ) . We implore Allâh ( to enrich us ) . »
60. As- Sadaqât ( here it means Zakât ) are only for the Fuqarâ’ ( poor ) , and Al- Masâkin [ 2 ] ( the poor ) and those employed to collect ( the funds ) , and to attract the hearts of those who have been inclined ( towards Islâm ) , and to free the captives, and for those in debt, and for Allâh’s Cause ( i.e. for Mujahidûn - those fighting in a holy battle ) , and for the wayfarer ( a traveller who is cut off from everything ) ; a duty imposed by Allâh. And Allâh is All- Knower, All- Wise.
61. And among them are men who annoy the Prophet ( Muhammad ( saas ) ) and say: « He is ( lending his ) ear ( to every news ) . » Say: « He listens to what is best for you; he believes in Allâh, has faith in the believers, and is a mercy to those of you who believe. » But those who annoy Allâh’s Messenger ( Muhammad ( saas ) ) will have a painful torment. [ See V.33:57 ]
