خُذْ مِنْ أَمْوَٰلِهِمْ صَدَقَةًۭ تُطَهِّرُهُمْ وَتُزَكِّيهِم بِهَا وَصَلِّ عَلَيْهِمْ ۖ إِنَّ صَلَوٰتَكَ سَكَنٌۭ لَّهُمْ ۗ وَٱللَّهُ سَمِيعٌ عَلِيمٌ

اے نبیؐ، تم ان کے اموال میں سے صدقہ لے کر انہیں پاک کرو اور (نیکی کی راہ میں) انہیں بڑھاؤ، اور ان کے حق میں دعائے رحمت کرو کیونکہ تمہاری دعا ان کے لیے وجہ تسکین ہوگی، اللہ سب کچھ سنتا اور جانتا ہے

Ambillah zakat dari sebagian harta mereka, dengan zakat itu kamu membersihkan dan mensucikan mereka dan mendoalah untuk mereka. Sesungguhnya doa kamu itu (menjadi) ketenteraman jiwa bagi mereka. Dan Allah Maha Mendengar lagi Maha Mengetahui.
Ibn Kathir
The Command to collect the Zakah and Its Benefits
Allah commanded His Messenger to take Sadaqah from the Muslims' money to purify and sanctify them with it. This Ayah is general, even though some said that it refers specifically to those who mixed good and evil deeds, who admitted to their errors. Some bedouin later thought that paying Zakah to the Leader was not legislated except to the Messenger ﷺ himself, using this Ayah as evidence,
خُذْ مِنْ أَمْوَلِهِمْ صَدَقَةً
(Take Sadaqah from their wealth.) Abu Bakr As-Siddiq and other Companions refuted this ill comprehension and fought against them until they paid the Zakah to the Khalifah, just as they used to pay it to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. As-Siddiq said, "By Allah! If they abstain from paying a bridle that they used to pay to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, I will fight them for refraining from paying it." Allah's statement,
وَصَلِّ عَلَيْهِمْ
(and Salli for them), means, supplicate for them, and ask Allah to forgive them. In the Sahih, Muslim recorded that `Abdullah bin Abi Awfa said, "Whenever the Prophet was brought charity, he used to invoke Allah for those who brought it. My father also brought his charity and the Prophet said,
«اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى آلِ أَبِي أَوْفَى»
(O Allah! I invoke You for the family of Abu Awfa.)" Allah's statement,
إِنَّ صَلَوَتَكَ سَكَنٌ لَّهُمْ
(Verily, your Salat are a Sakan for them), means, a mercy for them, according to Ibn `Abbas. Allah said next,
وَاللَّهُ سَمِيعٌ
(and Allah is All-Hearer,) of your invocation (O Muhammad),
عَلِيمٌ
(All-Knower.) in those who deserve your invocation on their behalf, who are worthy of it. Allah said,
أَلَمْ يَعْلَمُواْ أَنَّ اللَّهَ هُوَ يَقْبَلُ التَّوْبَةَ عَنْ عِبَادِهِ وَيَأْخُذُ الصَّدَقَـتِ
(Know they not that Allah accepts repentance from His servants and accepts the Sadaqat) This Ayah encourages reverting to repentance and giving charity, for each of these actions erases, deletes and eradicate sins. Allah states that He accepts the repentance of those who repent to Him, as well as charity from pure resources, for Allah accepts it with His Right Hand and raises it for its giver until even a date becomes as large as Mount Uhud. Abu Hurayrah narrated that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said,
«إِنَّ اللهَ يَقْبَلُ الصَّدَقَةَ وَيَأْخُذُهَا بِيَمِينِهِ فَيُرَبِّيهَا لِأَحَدِكُمْ كَمَا يُرَبِّي أَحَدُكُمْ مُهْرَهُ، حَتَّى إِنَّ اللُّقْمَةَ لَتَكُونُ مِثْلَ أُحُد»
(Verily, Allah accepts charity, receives it in His Right Hand and develops it for its giver, just as one of you raises his pony, until the bite of food becomes as large as Uhud.) wThe Book of Allah, the Exalted and Most Honored, testifies to this Hadith,
أَلَمْ يَعْلَمُواْ أَنَّ اللَّهَ هُوَ يَقْبَلُ التَّوْبَةَ عَنْ عِبَادِهِ وَيَأْخُذُ الصَّدَقَـتِ
(Know they not that Allah accepts repentance from His servants and accepts the Sadaqat), and,
يَمْحَقُ اللَّهُ الْرِّبَواْ وَيُرْبِى الصَّدَقَـتِ
(Allah will destroy Riba and will give increase for Sadaqat.) 2:276 `Abdullah bin Mas`ud said, "Charity falls in Allah's Hand before it falls in the needy's hand," he then recited this Ayah,
أَلَمْ يَعْلَمُواْ أَنَّ اللَّهَ هُوَ يَقْبَلُ التَّوْبَةَ عَنْ عِبَادِهِ وَيَأْخُذُ الصَّدَقَـتِ
(Know they not that Allah accepts repentance from His servants and accepts the Sadaqat).
المُيَسَّر
خذ -أيها النبي- من أموال هؤلاء التائبين الذين خلطوا عملا صالحا وآخر سيئا صدقة تطهرهم مِن دنس ذنوبهم، وترفعهم عن منازل المنافقين إلى منازل المخلصين، وادع لهم بالمغفرة لذنوبهم واستغفر لهم منها، إن دعاءك واستغفارك رحمة وطمأنينة لهم. والله سميع لكل دعاء وقول، عليم بأحوال العباد ونياتهم، وسيجازي كلَّ عامل بعمله.
