واعلموا انما غنمتم من شيء فان لله خمسه وللرسول ولذي القربى واليتامى والمساكين وابن السبيل ان كنتم امنتم بالله وما انزلنا على عبدنا يوم الفرقان يوم التقى الجمعان والله على كل شيء قدير

And know that out of All the booty that ye May acquire (in war), A fifth share is assigned To God,—and to the Apostle, And to near relatives, Orphans, the needy, And the wayfarer, If ye do believe in God And in the revelation We sent down to Our Servant On the Day of Testing,— The Day of the meeting Of the two forces. For God hath power Over all things.
