The Holy Quran 3:134 — Surah Ali 'Imran

Arabic text

ٱلَّذِينَ يُنفِقُونَ فِى ٱلسَّرَّآءِ وَٱلضَّرَّآءِ وَٱلْكَـٰظِمِينَ ٱلْغَيْظَ وَٱلْعَافِينَ عَنِ ٱلنَّاسِ ۗ وَٱللَّهُ يُحِبُّ ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ

Translation

(The people with Taqwa are) Those who spend (their wealth to please Allaah when they are) in ease and adversity (experiencing difficulty); (the people of Taqwa are also those) who swallow (suppress) their anger and who forgive people (forgive those who wrong them and act pleasantly with them). Allaah loves those who do good (and will therefore forgive them and reward them).

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

The qualities of those who do good: that is, neither in luxury and happiness do they forget Allah, nor in hardship and distress do they shrink from spending. On every occasion and in every state they are ready to spend according to their means; they are not misers and worshippers of money like the usurers.
