About the Surah

Note that you are those who are invited to spend (part of) your wealth in the Path of Allah, yet some of you act miserly. And whoever acts miserly, he is a miser to himself only. And Allah is All-Rich (Free of all needs) and you are poor (and needy). (Since you are needy, you are invited to spend in the Cause of Allah to satisfy your need in the Hereafter). And if you turn away (from Allah’s Com-mands), Allah will replace you with other people and they shall not be like you. (They shall be more obedient and will spend willingly in the Path of Allah).
