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 ፡ ፡
Basic virtue is not just to turn faces to the East and the West , but true righteousness is that one must believe in Allah and the Last Day and the angels and the Book and the Prophets ; and out of love for Allah , to give treasured wealth to relatives and to the orphans and the needy and the traveller , and to those who ask , and to set slaves free ; and to keep the prayer established and to pay the charity ; and those who fulfil their obligations when they make an agreement ; and the patient during times of calamity , in hardships and during holy war ; it is they who have proved true to their word ; it is they who are the pious .
