مَثَلُ الَّذ۪ينَ يُنْفِقُونَ اَمْوَالَهُمْ ف۪ي سَب۪يلِ اللّٰهِ كَمَثَلِ حَبَّةٍ اَنْبَتَتْ سَبْعَ سَنَابِلَ ف۪ي كُلِّ سُنْبُلَةٍ مِائَةُ حَبَّةٍۜ وَاللّٰهُ يُضَاعِفُ لِمَنْ يَشَٓاءُۜ وَاللّٰهُ وَاسِعٌ عَل۪يمٌ ۝٢٦١

261The case of those who spend their wealth in Allah's way is like a seed that produces seven ears, with a hundred grains in each ear. Allah multiplies many times over for whoever deserves it. Allah's grace/favor is vast, and He knows all things.
