What does the Qur'an say about spending in ease and in hardship?

Key findingsEditorial

One finding for each passage this study carries, in the order the study reads them. Each is the reason that passage was signed into the study, in full and unedited - including, where the renderings disagree, the disagreement.

  1. 01 3:134 THOSE WHO SPEND OF THAT WHICH GOD HATH GIVEN THEM IN EASE AND IN ADVERSITY, those who control their wrath and are forgiving toward mankind - God loveth the good. The question is drawn from this verse, which names spending in ease and in adversity first among the marks of those God loves, with controlling wrath and forgiving others. It also appears in What does the Qur'an say about controlling anger?, for a different reason.
  2. 02 65:7 LET HIM WHO HATH ABUNDANCE SPEND OF HIS ABUNDANCE, AND HE WHOSE PROVISION IS MEASURED, LET HIM SPEND OF THAT WHICH GOD HATH GIVEN HIM. GOD ASKETH NAUGHT OF ANY SOUL SAVE THAT WHICH HE HATH GIVEN IT. God will vouchsafe, after hardship, ease. In because it scales the obligation to means and then states the principle that no one is asked beyond what they hold.
  3. 03 2:215 They ask thee what they shall spend. Say: THAT WHICH YE SPEND FOR GOOD MUST GO TO PARENTS AND NEAR KINDRED AND ORPHANS AND THE NEEDY AND THE WAYFARER. In because the question asked is HOW MUCH and the answer given is TO WHOM. ALSO CARRIED by the study What does the Qur'an say about caring for the poor and the orphan?, with a different reason there.
  4. 04 2:219 And they ask thee what they ought to spend. Say: THAT WHICH IS SUPERFLUOUS. In because it is the only place the text answers the quantity question at all, and the answer is a relative term rather than a fraction.
In plain wordsEditorial written by the editors, not a translation

Written by the editors. Not a translation, and not a source. It is an editorial restatement of the verses in this study and carries their name because someone has to answer for it.

Four verses, and between them they do something unusual: they scale a religious obligation to a person's actual circumstances.

3:134 lists giving IN EASE AND IN ADVERSITY as the first mark of the people God loves - before controlling anger and before pardoning. Giving when it is difficult is named, not assumed away.

65:7 is the verse that makes this workable. LET HIM WHO HAS ABUNDANCE SPEND OF HIS ABUNDANCE - and HE WHOSE PROVISION IS MEASURED, let him spend of what God has given him. Two different standards for two different situations. And then the principle underneath: GOD ASKS NOTHING OF ANY SOUL SAVE WHAT HE HAS GIVEN IT. The obligation cannot exceed the means, by construction.

The verse ends with a promise that is also a description: God will grant, after hardship, ease. A related promise, at 94:5-6, is the subject of the study What does the Qur'an mean that "with hardship comes ease"?

2:215 and 2:219 are both answers to the same question - WHAT SHALL WE SPEND - asked twice. 2:215 answers with a list of PEOPLE rather than a sum: parents, near kindred, orphans, the needy, the wayfarer. 2:219 gives the only quantitative answer in the Qur'an, and it is not a number: THAT WHICH IS SUPERFLUOUS - the surplus, what is beyond need, depending on the rendering.

So the text refuses a fraction twice, gives a recipient list once, scales the duty to means, and caps it at what a person actually has. The obligatory share - zakat, with a rate - is taken up by the study How much charity does the Qur'an require (zakat)? and is not answered here.

not a scholar — what this signature means

I am not a scholar, and nothing here asks you to treat me as one. The plain words on this site are my restatement of what the five translations shown above say, together with counts derived from the text itself — nothing more. I sign them so that a named person is accountable for every sentence, not so you'll take my word for anything. The authority on this page is the text and its translators. If my words don't match theirs, mine are the ones that are wrong.

Scope of this study

This platform shows the verse, its easy-read line, its translations, a plain-words reading, and each verse among its neighbours. It does not supply occasion of revelation, interpretation (tafsir) or history, and it never invents them.

What this study does not answer, and which source would be needed. It does not say on what occasion any of these verses was given: this study holds no source whose usage rights can be verified. It does not report how any commentator has read them: this study holds no either - the Arabic of , and is public domain by age, but no English edition with verifiable usage rights exists. And it offers no academic-historical reading: this study holds no such scholarship. Each of those is an absence with a named cause, not an omission.

What this rests on

Opens with 3:134, widening across 4 passages in all.

Easy-read is a simplified pronunciation, not authoritative — a rule-by-rule romanisation, not a reading. Each verse ends in its pause form, as it is said when you stop there. Pauses inside a verse and other tajwid rules are not shown. It is derived from the Tanzil Simple edition, while the Arabic above is the Uthmani edition; both are cleared, but they are not the same edition and their orthography differs.

The versesSource fact 4 passages, each with every cleared translation

4 passages, chosen for this question and signed as part of it. Each carries the reason it is here, and each renders in full: the Arabic, then every cleared translation of that verse under its translator's name.

Each verse opens on the translation that comes first in the site's fixed order, which runs from the newest translation to the oldest. The order is not a preference. Open Compare translations on any verse to read the others.

Talal Itani2012 Humanity used to be one community; then God sent the prophets, bringing good news and giving warnings. And He sent down with them the Scripture, with the truth, to judge between people regarding their differences. But none differed over it except those who were given it-after the proofs had come to them-out of mutual envy between them. Then God guided those who believed to the truth they had disputed, in accordance with His will. God guides whom He wills to a straight path.

Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall1930 Mankind were one community, and Allah sent (unto them) prophets as bearers of good tidings and as warners, and revealed therewith the Scripture with the truth that it might judge between mankind concerning that wherein they differed. And only those unto whom (the Scripture) was given differed concerning it, after clear proofs had come unto them, through hatred one of another. And Allah by His Will guided those who believe unto the truth of that concerning which they differed. Allah guideth whom He will unto a straight path

Edward Henry Palmer1880 Men were one nation once, and God sent prophets with good tidings and with warnings, and sent down with them the Book in truth, to judge between men in that wherein they disagreed; but none did disagree therein save those who had been given it after that manifest signs had come to them, through greed amongst themselves; and God guided those who did believe to that truth concerning which they disagreed by His permission, for God guides whom He will unto the right path

John Medows Rodwell1861 Mankind was but one people; and God sent prophets to announce glad tidings and to warn; and He sent down with them the Book of Truth, that it might decide the disputes of men; and none disputed but those to whom the Book had been given, after the clear tokens had reached them, - being full of mutual jealousy. And God guided those who believed to the truth of that about which, by his permission, they had disputed; for God guideth whom he pleaseth into the straight path

George Sale1734 Mankind was of one faith, and God sent prophets bearing good tidings, and denouncing threats, and sent down with them the scripture in truth, that it might judge between men of that concerning which they disagreed: And none disagreed concerning it, except those to whom the same scriptures were delivered, after the declarations of God's will had come unto them, out of envy among themselves. And God directed those who believed, to that truth concerning which they disagreed, by his will: For God directeth whom he pleaseth into the right way

Talal Itani2012 Or do you expect to enter Paradise before the example of those who came before you had reached you? Adversity and hardship had afflicted them, and they were so shaken up, that the Messenger and those who believed with him said, "When is God's victory?" Indeed, God's victory is near.

Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall1930 Or think ye that ye will enter paradise while yet there hath not come unto you the like of (that which came to) those who passed away before you? Affliction and adversity befell them, they were shaken as with earthquake, till the messenger (of Allah) and those who believed along with him said: When cometh Allah's help? Now surely Allah's help is nigh

Edward Henry Palmer1880 Did ye count to enter Paradise, while there had nothing come to you like those who passed away before you; there touched them violence and harm, and they were made to quake, until the Apostle and those who believed with him said, 'When (comes) God's help? Is not God's help then surely nigh

John Medows Rodwell1861 Think ye to enter Paradise, when no such things have come upon you, as on those who flourish before you? Ills and troubles tried them; and so tossed were they by trials, that the Apostle and they who shared his faith, said, "When will the help of God come?" - Is not the help of God nigh

George Sale1734 Did ye think ye should enter paradise, when as yet no such thing had happened unto you, as hath happened unto those who have been before you? They suffered calamity, and tribulation, and were afflicted; so that the apostle, and they who believed with him, said; when will the help of God come? Is not the help of God nigh

Talal Itani2012 Fighting is ordained for you, even though you dislike it. But it may be that you dislike something while it is good for you, and it may be that you like something while it is bad for you. God knows, and you do not know.

Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall1930 Warfare is ordained for you, though it is hateful unto you; but it may happen that ye hate a thing which is good for you, and it may happen that ye love a thing which is bad for you. Allah knoweth, ye know not

Talal Itani2012 They ask you about fighting during the Holy Month. Say, "Fighting during it is deplorable; but to bar others from God's path, and to disbelieve in Him, and to prevent access to the Holy Mosque, and to expel its people from it, are more deplorable with God. And persecution is more serious than killing. They will not cease to fight you until they turn you back from your religion, if they can. Whoever among you turns back from his religion, and dies a disbeliever-those are they whose works will come to nothing, in this life, and in the Hereafter. Those are the inmates of the Fire, abiding in it forever.

Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall1930 They question thee (O Muhammad) with regard to warfare in the sacred month. Say: Warfare therein is a great (transgression), but to turn (men) from the way of Allah, and to disbelieve in Him and in the Inviolable Place of Worship, and to expel His people thence, is a greater with Allah; for persecution is worse than killing. And they will not cease from fighting against you till they have made you renegades from your religion, if they can. And whoso becometh a renegade and dieth in his disbelief: such are they whose works have fallen both in the world and the Hereafter. Such are rightful owners of the Fire: they will abide therein

Edward Henry Palmer1880 They will ask thee of the sacred month,- of fighting therein. Say, 'Fighting therein is a great sin; but turning folks off God's way, and misbelief in Him and in the Sacred Mosque, and turning His people out therefrom, is a greater in God's sight; and sedition is a greater sin than slaughter.' They will not cease from fighting you until they turn you from your religion if they can; but whosoever of you is turned from his religion and dies while still a misbeliever; these are those whose works are vain in this world and the next; they are the fellows of the Fire, and they shall dwell therein for aye

John Medows Rodwell1861 They will ask thee concerning war in the Sacred Month. SAY: To war therein is bad, but to turn aside from the cause of God, and to have no faith in Him, and in the Sacred Temple, and to drive out its people, is worse in the sight of God; and civil strife is worse than bloodshed. They will not cease to war against you until they turn you from your religion, if they be able: but whoever of you shall turn from his religion and die an infidel, their works shall be fruitless in this world, and in the next: they shall be consigned to the fire; therein to abide for aye

George Sale1734 They will ask thee concerning the sacred month, whether they may war therein: Answer, to war therein is grievous; but to obstruct the way of God, and infidelity towards him, and to keep men from the holy temple, and to drive out his people from thence, is more grievous in the sight of God, and the temptation to idolatry is more grievous than to kill in the sacred months. They will not cease to war against you, until they turn you from your religion, if they be able: But whoever among you shall turn back from his religion, and die an infidel, their works shall be vain in this world, and the next; they shall be the companions of hell fire, they shall remain therein for ever

They ask you about intoxicants and gambling. Say, "There is gross sin in them, and some benefits for people, but their sinfulness outweighs their benefit." And they ask you about what they should give: say, "The surplus." Thus God explains the revelations to you, so that you may think.

Они спрашивают тебя о вине и азартных играх. Скажи: «В них обоих — великий грех и некоторая польза для людей, но их грех больше, чем их польза». И они спрашивают тебя, что им расходовать. Скажи: «Излишек». Так Аллах разъясняет вам знамения, — быть может, вы поразмыслите

Питају те о опојним пићима и коцки! Реци: „У њима је велики грех, а има и неких користи људима; само је грех већи од њихове користи!“ Питају те, шта да удељују! Реци: „Вишак!“ Ето, тако вам Аллах прописе објашњава да бисте размислили,

Wanakuuliza juu ya mvinyo na kamari. Sema: Katika hivyo zipo dhambi kubwa na manufaa kwa watu. Lakini dhambi zake ni kubwa zaidi kuliko manufaa yake. Na wanakuuliza watoe nini? Sema: Kilichozidi mahitaji. Hivi ndivyo Mwenyezi Mungu anawabainishia Aya zake ili mpate kutafakari.

De frågar dig om alkoholdrycker och spel om pengar. Säg: ”I dem finns stor synd och även viss nytta för människorna, men deras synd är större än deras nytta.” Och de frågar dig om vad de ska skänka. Säg: ”Överskottet [av det ni själva är i behov av].” På så vis klargör Gud sina bestämmelser för er för att ni ska tänka över dem,

لوگ آپ سے شراب اور جوئے کا مسئلہ پوچھتے ہیں، آپ کہہ دیجیئے ان دونوں میں بہت بڑا گناه ہے[1] اور لوگوں کو اس سے دنیاوی فائده بھی ہوتا ہے، لیکن ان کا گناه ان کے نفع سے بہت زیاده ہے[2]۔ آپ سے یہ بھی دریافت کرتے ہیں کہ کیا کچھ خرچ کریں؟ تو آپ کہہ دیجیئے حاجت سے زائد چیز[3]، اللہ تعالیٰ اسی طرح اپنے احکام صاف صاف تمہارے لئے بیان فرما رہا ہے، تاکہ تم سوچ سمجھ سکو۔

Talal Itani2012 They ask you about fighting during the Holy Month. Say, "Fighting during it is deplorable; but to bar others from God's path, and to disbelieve in Him, and to prevent access to the Holy Mosque, and to expel its people from it, are more deplorable with God. And persecution is more serious than killing. They will not cease to fight you until they turn you back from your religion, if they can. Whoever among you turns back from his religion, and dies a disbeliever-those are they whose works will come to nothing, in this life, and in the Hereafter. Those are the inmates of the Fire, abiding in it forever.

Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall1930 They question thee (O Muhammad) with regard to warfare in the sacred month. Say: Warfare therein is a great (transgression), but to turn (men) from the way of Allah, and to disbelieve in Him and in the Inviolable Place of Worship, and to expel His people thence, is a greater with Allah; for persecution is worse than killing. And they will not cease from fighting against you till they have made you renegades from your religion, if they can. And whoso becometh a renegade and dieth in his disbelief: such are they whose works have fallen both in the world and the Hereafter. Such are rightful owners of the Fire: they will abide therein

Edward Henry Palmer1880 They will ask thee of the sacred month,- of fighting therein. Say, 'Fighting therein is a great sin; but turning folks off God's way, and misbelief in Him and in the Sacred Mosque, and turning His people out therefrom, is a greater in God's sight; and sedition is a greater sin than slaughter.' They will not cease from fighting you until they turn you from your religion if they can; but whosoever of you is turned from his religion and dies while still a misbeliever; these are those whose works are vain in this world and the next; they are the fellows of the Fire, and they shall dwell therein for aye

John Medows Rodwell1861 They will ask thee concerning war in the Sacred Month. SAY: To war therein is bad, but to turn aside from the cause of God, and to have no faith in Him, and in the Sacred Temple, and to drive out its people, is worse in the sight of God; and civil strife is worse than bloodshed. They will not cease to war against you until they turn you from your religion, if they be able: but whoever of you shall turn from his religion and die an infidel, their works shall be fruitless in this world, and in the next: they shall be consigned to the fire; therein to abide for aye

George Sale1734 They will ask thee concerning the sacred month, whether they may war therein: Answer, to war therein is grievous; but to obstruct the way of God, and infidelity towards him, and to keep men from the holy temple, and to drive out his people from thence, is more grievous in the sight of God, and the temptation to idolatry is more grievous than to kill in the sacred months. They will not cease to war against you, until they turn you from your religion, if they be able: But whoever among you shall turn back from his religion, and die an infidel, their works shall be vain in this world, and the next; they shall be the companions of hell fire, they shall remain therein for ever

Talal Itani2012 Those who believed, and those who migrated and fought for the sake of God-those look forward to God's mercy. God is Forgiving and Merciful.

Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall1930 Lo! those who believe, and those who emigrate (to escape the persecution) and strive in the way of Allah, these have hope of Allah's mercy. Allah is Forgiving, Merciful

Edward Henry Palmer1880 Verily, those who believe, and those who flee, and those who wage war in God's way; these may hope for God's mercy, for God is forgiving and merciful

John Medows Rodwell1861 But they who believe, and who fly their country, and fight in the cause of God may hope for God's mercy: and God is Gracious, Merciful

Talal Itani2012 About this world and the next. And they ask you about orphans. Say, "Improvement for them is best. And if you intermix with them, then they are your brethren." God knows the dishonest from the honest. Had God willed, He could have overburdened you. God is Mighty and Wise.

Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall1930 Upon the world and the Hereafter. And they question thee concerning orphans. Say: To improve their lot is best. And if ye mingle your affairs with theirs, then (they are) your brothers. Allah knoweth him who spoileth from him who improveth. Had Allah willed He could have overburdened you. Allah is Mighty, Wise

Edward Henry Palmer1880 They will ask thee about orphans: say, 'To do good to them is best.' But if ye interfere with them - they are your brethren, and God knows the evildoer from the well doer; and if God will He will surely trouble you. Verily, God is mighty, wise

John Medows Rodwell1861 On this present world, and on the next. They will also ask thee concerning orphans. SAY: Fair dealing with them is best; But if ye mix yourselves up (in their affairs) - they are your brethren: God knoweth the foul dealer from the fair: and, if God pleased, he could indeed afflict you! Verily, God is Mighty, Wise

George Sale1734 of this present world, and of the next. They will also ask thee concerning orphans: Answer, to deal righteously with them is best and if ye intermeddle with the management of what belongs to them, do them no wrong; they are your brethren: God knoweth the corrupt dealer from the righteous; and if God please, he will surely distress you, for God is mighty and wise

Talal Itani2012 Do not marry idolatresses, unless they have believed. A believing maid is better than an idolatress, even if you like her. And do not marry idolaters, unless they have believed. A believing servant is better than an idolater, even if you like him. These call to the Fire, but God calls to the Garden and to forgiveness, by His leave. He makes clear His communications to the people, that they may be mindful.

Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall1930 Wed not idolatresses till they believe; for lo! a believing bondwoman is better than an idolatress though she please you; and give not your daughters in marriage to idolaters till they believe, for lo! a believing slave is better than an idolater though he please you. These invite unto the Fire, and Allah inviteth unto the Garden, and unto forgiveness by His grace, and expoundeth His revelations to mankind that haply they may remember

Edward Henry Palmer1880 Wed not with idolatrous women until they believe, for surely a believing handmaid is better than an idolatrous woman, even though she please you. And wed not to idolatrous men until they believe, for a believing slave is better than an idolater, even though he please you. Those invite you to the fire, but God invites you to paradise and pardon by His permission, and makes clear His signs to men; haply they may remember

John Medows Rodwell1861 Marry not idolatresses until they believe; a slave who believeth is better than an idolatress, though she please you more. And wed not your daughters to idolaters until they believe; for a slave who is a believer, is than better an idolater, though he please you. They invite to the Fire; but God inviteth to Paradise, and to pardon, if he so will, and maketh clear his signs to men that they may remember

George Sale1734 Marry not women who are idolaters, until they believe: Verily a maid servant who believeth, is better than an idolatress, although she please you more. And give not women who believe, in marriage to the idolaters, until they believe; for verily a servant, who is a true believer, is better than an idolater, though he please you more. They invite unto hell fire, but God inviteth unto paradise and pardon through his will, and declareth his signs unto men, that they may remember

What this study rests on, and what it refusessigned with it5 of the 6 paragraphs signed with this study; the paragraph naming what it does not answer is at the top of the page

The selection above and this account of it are part of what was signed. Where the renderings disagree it says so; where the question runs past what has cleared the rights audit it says that too.

Read across the four public-domain translations - Sale 1734, Rodwell 1861, Palmer 1880, Pickthall 1930 - of 3:134, 65:7, 2:215, 2:219, in full, and nothing else. This study consults no , no , no occasion of revelation and no biography, because none is yet available in an edition whose usage rights can be verified. Itani 2012, the fifth translation shown with these verses, was not consulted for this study.

How this set was arrived at. The verses were found by a word search of the four public-domain translations, using terms chosen by the editor and listed here as they were searched - spend + in + ease + in + adversity; spend + prosperity + adversity; let + him + who + hath + abundance + spend; straitened + spend + of + that + which + god + hath + given. The search was a way of finding passages, not a judgement about what they mean: that several translators chose the same English word is not evidence about the Arabic. A different choice of terms gives a different set.

Verses carried by more than one study. Some passages here also serve another study. Each carries its own reason in each place, and the reason states where else it appears.

Where the translations part company, named rather than resolved. How differently the translations word each verse is shown on that verse's page, and the study names the differences it turns on rather than choosing between them.

Correction record, 2026-09-17. At 3:134, the reason named a study that does not carry the verse; it now names only the one that does. The verses shown and their translations are unchanged.
