And if you are on a journey and cannot find a scribe, then let there be a pledge taken (mortgaging); then if one of you entrust the other, let the one who is entrusted discharge his trust (faithfully), and let him be afraid of Allah, his Lord. And conceal not the evidence for he, who hides it, surely his heart is sinful. And Allah is All-Knower of what you do.
Na mkiwa safarini na hamkupata mwandishi, yatosha kukabidhiwa rahani. Na mmoja wenu akimwekea amana mwenziwe basi aliye aminiwa airudishe amana ya mwenzake, na amche Mwenyezi Mungu, Mola wake Mlezi. Wala msifiche ushahidi. Na atakaye ficha basi hakika moyo wake ni wenye kutenda dhambi. Na Mwenyezi Mungu ni Mjuzi wa mnayo yatenda.
