Al-Baqarah 2:268

<h2>The Encouragement to Spend Honest Money for Allah's Sake</h2><p>Allah commands His believing servants to spend in charity, as Ibn `Abbas stated, from the pure, honest money that they earned and from the fruits and vegetables that He has grown for them in the land. Ibn `Abbas said, "Allah commanded them to spend from the purest, finest and best types of their money and prohibited spending from evil and dishonest money, because Allah is pure and good and only accepts that which is pure and good." This is why Allah said,</p><p>وَلاَ تَيَمَّمُواْ الْخَبِيثَ</p><p>(and do not aim at that which is bad) meaning, filthy (impure) money,</p><p>مِنْهُ تُنفِقُونَ وَلَسْتُم بِأَخِذِيهِ</p><p>(to spend from it, (though) you would not accept it) meaning, "If you were given this type, you would not take it, except if you tolerate the deficiency in it.

Shaitan (Satan) threatens you with poverty and orders you to commit Fahsha (evil deeds, illegal sexual intercourse, sins etc.); whereas Allah promises you Forgiveness from Himself and Bounty, and Allah is All-Sufficient for His creatures' needs, All-Knower.

Satan promises you poverty, and urges you to immorality; but God promises you forgiveness from Himself, and grace. God is Embracing and Knowing.
