  مَنْ تَصَدَّقَ بِصَدَقَةٍ مِنْ كَسْبٍ طَيِّبٍ - وَلَا يَقْبَلُ اللَّهُ إِلَّا طَيِّبًا - كَانَ إِنَّمَا يَضَعُهَا فِي كَفِّ الرَّحْمَنِ يُرَبِّيهَا كَمَا يُرَبِّي أَحَدُكُمْ فَلُوَّهُ أَوْ فَصِيلَهُ حَتَّى تَكُونَ مِثْلَ الْجَبَلِ.
  man taṣaddaqa biṣadaqatin min kasbin ṭayyibin - walā yaqbalu l-lahu ʔillā ṭayyiban - kāna ʔinnamā yaḍaʕuhā fī kaffi r-raḥmani yurabbīhā kamā yurabbī ʔaḥadukum faluwwahu ʔaw faṣīlahu ḥattā takūna miṯla l-jabali.
  Whoever gives handout from good earning – and Allah only accepts the good – it is as if he placed it in the palm of the Merciful to raise it, as one of you raises his foal or young camel until it is like the mountain.
