اَ لَّذِیۡنَ یُنۡفِقُوۡنَ اَمۡوَالَہُمۡ فِیۡ سَبِیۡلِ اللّٰہِ ثُمَّ لَا یُتۡبِعُوۡنَ مَاۤ اَنۡفَقُوۡا مَنًّا وَّ لَاۤ اَذًیۙ لَّہُمۡ اَجۡرُہُمۡ عِنۡدَ رَبِّہِمۡ ۚ وَ لَا خَوۡفٌ عَلَیۡہِمۡ وَ لَا ہُمۡ یَحۡزَنُوۡنَ ﴿۲۶۲﴾ قَوۡلٌ مَّعۡـرُوۡفٌ وَّ مَغۡفِرَۃٌ خَیۡرٌ مِّنۡ صَدَقَۃٍ یَّتۡبَعُہَاۤ اَذًی ؕ وَ اللّٰہُ غَنِیٌّ حَلِیۡمٌ ﴿۲۶۳﴾
Those who spend their wealth in Allah’s way and thereafter do not express favour nor cause hurt (hurting the recipient’s feelings), their reward is with their Lord; there shall be no fear upon them nor shall they grieve. Speaking kind words and pardoning are better than charity followed by injury; and Allah is the Independent, Most Forbearing.
[Kanz-ul-Iman (Translation of Quran)] (Part 3, Al-Baqarah, verse 262, 263)
Commenting on aforementioned blessed verse, Imam Khaazin رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه has stated: Expressing favours’ refers to the mentioning favours in the presence of others after giving something to somebody, e.g. ‘I gave you that much and treated you in such and such kind way’. Thus hurting and grieving someone in this way is called expressing favours and ‘causing injury’ to someone refers to making him feel ashamed or embarrassed by passing comments such as, ‘You were poor, needy, obligated to me and lazy etc., I took care of you’.
