يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓا۟ أَنفِقُوا۟ مِمَّا رَزَقْنَٰكُم مِّن قَبْلِ أَن يَأْتِىَ يَوْمٌۭ لَّا بَيْعٌۭ فِيهِ وَلَا خُلَّةٌۭ وَلَا شَفَٰعَةٌۭ ۗ وَٱلْكَٰفِرُونَ هُمُ ٱلظَّٰلِمُونَ

سُورَةُ البَقَرَةِ
English — Sahih International
O you who have believed, spend from that which We have provided for you before there comes a Day in which there is no exchange and no friendship and no intercession. And the disbelievers - they are the wrongdoers.
اردو — مودودی
اے لوگو جو ایمان لائے ہو، جو کچھ مال متاع ہم نے تم کو بخشا ہے، اس میں سے خرچ کرو، قبل اس کے کہ وہ دن آئے، جس میں نہ خریدو فروخت ہوگی، نہ دوستی کام آئے گی اور نہ سفارش چلے گی اور ظالم اصل میں وہی ہیں، جو کفر کی روش اختیار کرتے ہیں
Bahasa Indonesia — Kemenag
Hai orang-orang yang beriman, belanjakanlah (di jalan Allah) sebagian dari rezeki yang telah Kami berikan kepadamu sebelum datang hari yang pada hari itu tidak ada lagi jual beli dan tidak ada lagi syafa'at. Dan orang-orang kafir itulah orang-orang yang zalim.
Ibn Kathir
Allah commands His servants to spend for His sake, in the path of righteousness, from what He has granted them, so that they acquire and keep the reward of this righteous deed with their Lord and King. Let them rush to perform this deed in this life,
مِّن قَبْلِ أَن يَأْتِىَ يَوْمٌ
(before a Day comes) meaning, the Day of Resurrection,
لاَّ بَيْعٌ فِيهِ وَلاَ خُلَّةٌ وَلاَ شَفَـعَةٌ
(when there will be no bargaining, nor friendship, nor intercession.)
This Ayah indicates that on that Day, no one will be able to bargain on behalf of himself or ransom himself with any amount, even if it was the earth's fill of gold; nor will his friendship or relation to anyone benefit him. Similarly, Allah said,
فَإِذَا نُفِخَ فِى الصُّورِ فَلاَ أَنسَـبَ بَيْنَهُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ وَلاَ يَتَسَآءَلُونَ
(Then, when the Trumpet is blown, there will be no kinship among them that Day, nor will they ask of one another) 23:101.
وَلاَ شَفَـعَةٌ
(Nor intercession) meaning, they will not benefit by the intercession of anyone.
Allah's statement,
وَالْكَـفِرُونَ هُمُ الظَّـلِمُونَ
(and it is the disbelievers who are the wrongdoers) indicates that no injustice is worse than meeting Allah on that Day while a disbeliever. Ibn Abi Hatim recorded that `Ata' bin Dinar said, "All thanks are due to Allah Who said,
وَالْكَـفِرُونَ هُمُ الظَّـلِمُونَ
(and it is the disbelievers who are the wrongdoers) but did not say, `And it is the wrongdoers who are the disbelievers."'
المُيَسَّر
يا من آمنتم بالله وصدَّقتم رسوله وعملتم بهديه أخرجوا الزكاة المفروضة، وتصدَّقوا مما أعطاكم الله قبل مجيء يوم القيامة حين لا بيع فيكون ربح، ولا مال تفتدون به أنفسكم مِن عذاب الله، ولا صداقة صديق تُنقذكم، ولا شافع يملك تخفيف العذاب عنكم. والكافرون هم الظالمون المتجاوزون حدود الله.
