مثل الذين ينفقون اموالهم في سبيل الله كمثل حبة انبتت سبع سنابل في كل سنبلة مائة حبة والله يضاعف لمن يشاء والله واسع عليم

The parable of those Who spend their substance In the way of God is that Of a grain of corn: it groweth Seven ears, and each ear Hath a hundred grains. God giveth manifold increase To whom He pleaseth: And God careth for all And He knoweth all things
