261. The example of those who spend their wealth in the way of Allah is like that of a grain which caused to grow seven ears and in each ear one hundred grains and Allah may increase more than that for whomsoever He pleases; and Allah is Bountiful, All-knowing.

262. Those who spend their wealth in the way of Allah, then after spending neither boast of favours conferred nor injure, their reward is with their Lord, and they shall have no fear, nor any grief.

263. To speak kind word and to forgive is better than that; charity followed by injury. And Allah is above want, Clement.

264. O believers! Void not your charities by boasting of your favours conferred and injuring, like him who spent his wealth for showing to people and believes not in Allah and Last Day. Then the example of him is like that of a smooth rock on which is dust of earth; now a heavy rain fell upon it leaving it a bare stone. They shall have no control on anything of what they have earned and Allah guides not the infidels.
