Verse 261

مَّثَلُ Example ٱلَّذِينَ (of) those who يُنفِقُونَ spend أَمْوَٰلَهُمْ their wealth فِى in سَبِيلِ (the) way ٱللَّهِ (of) Allah كَمَثَلِ (is) like حَبَّةٍ a grain أَنۢبَتَتْ which grows سَبْعَ seven سَنَابِلَ ears فِى in كُلِّ each سُنۢبُلَةٍۢ ear مِّا۟ئَةُ hundred حَبَّةٍۢ ۗ grain(s) وَٱللَّهُ And Allah يُضَـٰعِفُ gives manifold لِمَن to whom يَشَآءُ ۗ He wills وَٱللَّهُ And Allah وَٰسِعٌ (is) All-Encompassing عَلِيمٌ All-Knowing ٢٦١

The example of those who spend their wealth in the way of Allāh is like a seed [of grain] which grows seven spikes; in each spike is a hundred grains. And Allāh multiplies [His reward] for whom He wills. And Allāh is all-Encompassing and Knowing.
