Tafsir
Verse range: 2:262
To Remind About Charity Given is Forbidden Allah says;
الذين ينفقون أموالهم في سبيل الله ثم ﻻ يتبعون ما أنفقوا منا وﻻ أذى لهم أجرهم عند ربهم
Those who spend their wealth in the cause of Allah, and do not follow up their gifts with reminders of their generosity or with injury, their reward is with their Lord. Allah praises those who spend from their money in His cause, and then refrain from reminding those who received the charity of that fact, whether these hints take the form of words or actions. Allah's statement,
وﻻ أذى
(or with injury), indicates that they do not cause harm to those whom they gave the charity to, for this harm will only annul the charity. Allah next promised them the best rewards for this good deed,
لهم أجرهم عند ربهم
(their reward is with their Lord), indicating that Allah Himself will reward them for these righteous actions. Further,
وﻻ خوف عليهم
On them shall be no fear, regarding the horrors of the Day of Resurrection,
وﻻ هم يحزنون
nor shall they grieve. regarding the offspring that they leave behind and the adornment and delights of this world. They will not feel sorry for this, because they will acquire what is far better for them. Allah then said,
