Muhammad 47:38 ها انتم هاولاء تدعون لتنفقوا في سبيل الله فمنكم من يبخل ومن يبخل فانما يبخل عن نفسه والله الغني وانتم الفقراء وان تتولوا يستبدل قوما غيركم ثم لا يكونوا امثالكم ٣٨
هَٰٓأَنتُمۡ
هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ
تُدۡعَوۡنَ
لِتُنفِقُواْ
فِي
سَبِيلِ
ٱللَّهِ
فَمِنكُم
مَّن
يَبۡخَلُۖ
وَمَن
يَبۡخَلۡ
فَإِنَّمَا
يَبۡخَلُ
عَن
نَّفۡسِهِۦۚ
وَٱللَّهُ
ٱلۡغَنِيُّ
وَأَنتُمُ
ٱلۡفُقَرَآءُۚ
وَإِن
تَتَوَلَّوۡاْ
يَسۡتَبۡدِلۡ
قَوۡمًا
غَيۡرَكُمۡ
ثُمَّ
لَا
يَكُونُوٓاْ
أَمۡثَٰلَكُم
٣٨
