o you who have attained to faith! behold many of the rabbis and monks do indeed wrongfully devour mens possessions and turn away from the path of god. but as for all who lay up treasures of gold and silver and do not spend them for the sake of god give them the tiding of grievous suffering on the day when that shall be heated in the fire of hell and their foreheads and their sides and their backs branded therewith these are the treasures which you have laid up for yourselves! taste then your hoarded treasures!
يا أيها الذين آمنوا إن كثيرا من الأحبار والرهبان ليأكلون أموال الناس بالباطل ويصدون عن سبيل الله والذين يكنزون الذهب والفضة ولا ينفقونها في سبيل الله فبشرهم بعذاب أليم يوم يحمى عليها في نار جهنم فتكوى بها جباههم وجنوبهم وظهورهم هذا ما كنزتم لأنفسكم فذوقوا ما كنتم تكنزون
