Al-Baqarah 2:83 واذ اخذنا ميثاق بني اسراييل لا تعبدون الا الله وبالوالدين احسانا وذي القربى واليتامى والمساكين وقولوا للناس حسنا واقيموا الصلاة واتوا الزكاة ثم توليتم الا قليلا منكم وانتم معرضون ٨٣
وَإِذۡ

مِيثَٰقَ
بَنِيٓ
إِسۡرَٰٓءِيلَ

إِلَّا
ٱللَّهَ
وَبِٱلۡوَٰلِدَيۡنِ
إِحۡسَانٗا
وَذِي
ٱلۡقُرۡبَىٰ
وَٱلۡيَتَٰمَىٰ
وَٱلۡمَسَٰكِينِ
وَقُولُواْ
لِلنَّاسِ
حُسۡنٗا
وَأَقِيمُواْ
ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ
وَءَاتُواْ
ٱلزَّكَوٰةَ

تَوَلَّيۡتُمۡ
إِلَّا
قَلِيلٗا
مِّنكُمۡ
وَأَنتُم
مُّعۡرِضُونَ
