Tafsir

Scholarly commentary explaining a verse — its context, its meaning and how the scholars have understood it.

Al-Baqarah 2:215

Word by word

يَسْـَٔلُونَكَ مَاذَا يُنفِقُونَ ۖ قُلْ مَآ أَنفَقْتُم مِّنْ خَيْرٍ فَلِلْوَٰلِدَيْنِ وَٱلْأَقْرَبِينَ وَٱلْيَتَـٰمَىٰ وَٱلْمَسَـٰكِينِ وَٱبْنِ ٱلسَّبِيلِ ۗ وَمَا تَفْعَلُوا۟ مِنْ خَيْرٍ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ بِهِۦ عَلِيمٌ

They ask you, [O Muḥammad], what they should spend. Say, "Whatever you spend of good is [to be] for parents and relatives and orphans and the needy and the traveler. And whatever you do of good - indeed, Allāh is Knowing of it."

Tafsir Ibn Kathir

Hafiz Ibn Kathir

قال مقاتل بن حيان : هذه الآية في نفقة التطوع . وقال السدي : نسختها الزكاة . وفيه نظر . ومعنى الآية : يسألونك كيف ينفقون ؟ قاله ابن عباس ومجاهد ، فبين لهم تعالى ذلك ، فقال : ( قل ما أنفقتم من خير فللوالدين والأقربين واليتامى والمساكين وابن السبيل ) أي : اصرفوها في هذه الوجوه . كما جاء في الحديث : " أمك وأباك ، وأختك وأخاك ، ثم أدناك أدناك " . وتلا ميمون بن مهران هذه الآية ، ثم قال : هذه مواضع النفقة ما ذكر فيها طبلا ولا مزمارا ، ولا تصاوير الخشب ، ولا كسوة الحيطان .ثم قال تعالى : ( وما تفعلوا من خير فإن الله به عليم ) أي : مهما صدر منكم من فعل معروف ، فإن الله يعلمه ، وسيجزيكم على ذلك أوفر الجزاء ; فإنه لا يظلم أحدا مثقال ذرة .
