AL-BAQARAH
Section 22 : Retaliation and Bequests
--------------------------------------
177 : It is not righteousness that ye turn your faces towards East or West; but it is righteousness - to believe in God and the Last Day, and the Angels, and the Book, and the Messengers, to spend of your Substance, out of love for Him, for your kin, for orphans, for the needy, for the wayfarer, for those who ask, and for the ransom of slaves; to be steadfast in prayer, and practice regular charity; to fulfil the contracts which ye have made; and to be firm and patient, in pain (or suffering) and adversity, and throughout all periods of panic. Such are the people of truth, the God-fearing.

AL-BAQARAH
Pokok-pokok Kebajikan
-----------------------
177 : Bukanlah menghadapkan wajahmu ke arah timur dan barat itu suatu kebajikan, akan tetapi sesungguhnya kebajikan itu ialah
beriman kepada Allah, hari kemudian, malaikat-malaikat, kitab-kitab, nabi-nabi dan
memberikan harta yang dicintainya kepada kerabatnya, anak-anak yatim, orang-orang miskin, musafir (yang memerlukan pertolongan) dan orang-orang yang meminta-minta, dan (memerdekakan) hamba sahaya,
mendirikan shalat,
dan menunaikan zakat,
dan orang-orang yang menepati janjinya apabila ia berjanji,
dan orang-orang yang sabar dalam kesempitan, penderitaan dan dalam peperangan.
Mereka itulah orang-orang yang benar-benar (imannya); dan mereka itulah orang-orang yang bertakwa.
