يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓا۟ أَنفِقُوا۟ مِن طَيِّبَٰتِ مَا كَسَبْتُمْ وَمِمَّآ أَخْرَجْنَا لَكُم مِّنَ ٱلْأَرْضِ وَلَا تَيَمَّمُوا۟ ٱلْخَبِيثَ مِنْهُ تُنفِقُونَوَلَسْتُم بِـَٔاخِذِيهِ إِلَّآ أَن تُغْمِضُوا۟ فِيهِ وَٱعْلَمُوٓا۟ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ غَنِىٌّ حَمِيدٌ 267
267. O ye who believe! Spend of the good things which ye
have earned, and of that which We bring forth from the earth
for you, and seek not the bad (with intent) to spend thereof (in charity)
when ye would not take it for yourselves save with disdain. And know that
Allah is Absolute, Owner of Praise.

Commentary
‘Al-khabiisu – (the bad thing), it
aims ‘rejected, inferior and useless thing)
Different commandments
have been conveyed regarding spending in the Way of God Almighty. It has been
described in the previous verses that whenever you spend for the Cause of Allah
Almighty; it should be avoided from showing and dissembling. Moreover, personal
intent should not be to molest the people and to cause to boast one’s bigness.
To whom the charity is given, he should neither be placed under an obligation,
nor injured and nor you should despair him. Rather the wealth should be spent
only with good intent and purity of heart for the Pleasure of God Almighty.
There should not be any other purpose except the Will of God
Almighty.
It has been explained
in this verse that acceptable and of superior quality; things out of one’s
lawful and pure earnings should be given in the Path of Allah Almighty. That is
to say; the remainder, stale, bad smelling, spoiled or rotten things should not
be given to the poor, needy and miserable people. It is fact that if someone
gives you any time these types of things, you will never accept them, you will
turn up your nose, knit the eyebrows, and declare abomination from it, save it
is another matter that you will keep quiet due to any particular reason and
overlook from it. Therefore, the bad things should never be given for the sake
of God Almighty.
It is necessary that
the best of all wealth and the best of all things, which you love most, should
be spent fondly in the Way of Allah Almighty. You will get more reward doing
so. God Almighty is Absolute from our alms and charity. He does not need
these things absolutely. Nevertheless, with how much pleasure we shall spend,
He will give us so more.
