Zakah expenditures are only for the poor and for the needy and for those
employed to collect [zakah] and for bringing hearts together [for Islam]
and for freeing captives [or slaves] and for those in debt and for the
cause of Allah and for the [stranded] traveler - an obligation [imposed]
by Allah . And Allah is Knowing and Wise.
And among them are those who abuse the Prophet and say, "He is an ear."
Say, "[It is] an ear of goodness for you that believes in Allah and
believes the believers and [is] a mercy to those who believe among you."
And those who abuse the Messenger of Allah - for them is a painful
punishment.
Do they not know that whoever opposes Allah and His Messenger - that for
him is the fire of Hell, wherein he will abide eternally? That is the
great disgrace.
They hypocrites are apprehensive lest a surah be revealed about them,
informing them of what is in their hearts. Say, "Mock [as you wish];
indeed, Allah will expose that which you fear."
And if you ask them, they will surely say, "We were only conversing and
playing." Say, "Is it Allah and His verses and His Messenger that you were
mocking?"
