Surah Al-Baqara Verse 271 - English Translation by Dr Kamal Omar
Surah Al-Baqaraإِن تُبۡدُواْ ٱلصَّدَقَٰتِ فَنِعِمَّا هِيَۖ وَإِن تُخۡفُوهَا وَتُؤۡتُوهَا ٱلۡفُقَرَآءَ فَهُوَ خَيۡرٞ لَّكُمۡۚ وَيُكَفِّرُ عَنكُم مِّن سَيِّـَٔاتِكُمۡۗ وَٱللَّهُ بِمَا تَعۡمَلُونَ خَبِيرٞ
If you make your Sadaqat evident, even so it is well and if you keep it secret and give them to those who are really deserving, it is better for you. And He will write off some of your evil acts. And Allah is All-Aware of what you practice
