መልካም ሥራ ፊቶቻችሁን ወደ ምሥራቅና ምዕራብ አቅጣጫ ማዞር አይደለም ፡ ፡ ግን መልካም ሥራ በአላህና በመጨረሻው ቀን ፣ በመላእክትም ፣ በመጻሕፍትም ፣ በነቢያትም ፣ ያመነ ሰው ገንዘብንም ከመውደዱ ጋር ለዝምድና ባለቤቶችና ለየቲሞች ለምስኪኖችም ፣ ለመንገደኞችም ፣ ለለማኞችም ፣ ለጫንቃዎችም ( ማስለቀቅ ) የሰጠ ሰውና ሶላትንም ደንቡን ጠብቆ የሰገደ ፣ ዘካንም የሰጠ ፣ ቃል ኪዳንም በገቡ ጊዜ በኪዳናቸው የሞሉ ( ሰዎች ሥራ ) ነው ፡ ፡ በችግር በበሽታና በጦር ጊዜም ታጋሾችን ( እናወድሳለን ) ፡ ፡ እነዚህ እነዚያ እውነትን የያዙ ናቸው ፡ ፡ እነዚያም ተጠንቃቂዎቹ እነርሱ ናቸው ፡ ፡
It is not Al-Birr ( piety , righteousness , and each and every act of obedience to Allah , etc . ) that you turn your faces towards east and ( or ) west ( in prayers ) ; but Al-Birr is ( the quality of ) the one who believes in Allah , the Last Day , the Angels , the Book , the Prophets and gives his wealth , in spite of love for it , to the kinsfolk , to the orphans , and to Al-Masakin ( the poor ) , and to the wayfarer , and to those who ask , and to set slaves free , performs As-Salat ( Iqamat-as-Salat ) , and gives the Zakat , and who fulfill their covenant when they make it , and who are As-Sabirin ( the patient ones , etc . ) in extreme poverty and ailment ( disease ) and at the time of fighting ( during the battles ) . Such are the people of the truth and they are Al-Muttaqun ( pious - see V. 2 : 2 ) .
