ہٰۤاَنۡتُمۡ ہٰۤؤُلَآءِ تُدۡعَوۡنَ لِتُنۡفِقُوۡا فِیۡ سَبِیۡلِ اللّٰہِ ۚ فَمِنۡکُمۡ مَّنۡ یَّبۡخَلُ ۚ وَ مَنۡ یَّبۡخَلۡ فَاِنَّمَا یَبۡخَلُ عَنۡ نَّفۡسِہٖ ؕ وَ اللّٰہُ الۡغَنِیُّ وَ اَنۡتُمُ الۡفُقَرَآءُ ۚ وَ اِنۡ تَتَوَ لَّوۡ ا یَسۡتَبۡدِ لۡ قَوۡ مًا غَیۡرَکُمۡ ۙ ثُمَّ لَا یَکُوۡ نُوۡۤ ا اَ مۡثَا لَکُمۡ ﴿٪۳۸﴾
Ha! You are those who are called upon to spend in the path of Allah; so some among you act miserly; and whoever is miserly, is being a miser upon himself; and Allah is the Self-sufficient (Wealthy – not requiring anything), and you all are needy; and if you back out, He will substitute for you another nation, and they will not be like you.
