O you who believe! Verily, there are many of the (Jewish) rabbis and the (Christian) monks who devour the wealth of mankind in falsehood, and hinder (them) from the Way of Allah (i.e. Allah's Religion of Islamic Monotheism). And those who hoard up gold and silver [Al-Kanz: the money, the Zakat of which has not been paid], and spend it not in the Way of Allah, -announce unto them a painful torment.
Enyi mlio amini! Hakika wengi katika makuhani na wamonaki wanakula mali za watu kwa baat'ili na wanazuilia Njia ya Mwenyezi Mungu. Na wanao kusanya dhahabu na fedha, wala hawazitumii katika Njia ya Mwenyezi Mungu, wabashirie khabari ya adhabu iliyo chungu.
