O you who have confirmed Allah and His Messenger and acted by His law, if you intended that you talk to the Messenger of Allah peace and blessings of Allah be upon him secretly between you and between him, then put forward before that a charity for the people of need, that is better for you for what is in it of the reward, and purer for your hearts from the sins, then if you did not find what you give as charity then no sin upon you; for indeed Allah is Forgiving to His believing servants, Merciful to them.
