Righteousness does not consist in turning your faces towards the east or towards the west; true righteousness consists in believing in Allah and the Last Day, the angels, the Book and the Prophets, and in giving away one’s property in love of Him to one’s kinsmen, the orphans, the poor and the wayfarer, and to those who ask for help, and in freeing the necks of slaves, and in establishing Prayer and dispensing the Zakah. True righteousness is attained by those who are faithful to their promise once they have made it and by those who remain steadfast in adversity and affliction and at the time of battle (between Truth and falsehood). Such are the truthful ones; such are the God-fearing.

Neki yeh nahin hai ke tumne apne chehre mashriq (east) ki taraf karliye ya magrib(west) ki taraf, balke neki yeh hai ke aadmi Allah ko aur yaum e aakhir aur malaika ko aur Allah ki nazil ki hui kitab aur uske paighambaron ko dil se maane aur Allah ki muhabbat mein apna dil pasand maal rishtedaaron aur yateemon par, miskeeno aur musafiron par, madad ke liye haath phaylane walon par aur ghulamo ki rihayi par kharch karey, namaz qayam karey aur zakaat de aur neik woh log hain ke jab ahad karein to usey wafa karein, aur tanggi o museebat ke waqt mein aur haqq o baatil ki jung mein sabr karein, yeh hain raast baaz log aur yahi log muttaqi (pious) hain
