قُلْ أَنفِقُوا۟طَوْعًا أَوْ كَرْهًا لَّن يُتَقَبَّلَ مِنكُمْ إِنَّكُمْ كُنتُمْ قَوْمًا فَٰسِقِينَ 53
وَمَا مَنَعَهُمْ أَن تُقْبَلَ مِنْهُمْ نَفَقَٰتُهُمْ إِلَّآ أَنَّهُمْ كَفَرُوا۟ بِٱللَّهِ وَبِرَسُولِهِۦ وَلَا يَأْتُونَ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ إِلَّا وَهُمْ كُسَالَىٰ وَلَا يُنفِقُونَ إِلَّا وَهُمْكَٰرِهُونَ 54
53. Say: Pay (your contribution), willingly or
unwillingly, it will not be accepted from you. Lo! ye are froward folk.
54. And naught preventeth that their contributions
should be accepted from them save that they have disbelieved in Allah and in
His Messenger, and they come not to worship save as idlers, and pay not
(their contribution) save reluctantly.

Commentary
Nafaqaatu –
(contributions), it is plural of nafaqatun. Which money is spent by
a man, is called nafaqah, whether that is spent to fulfill own
necessities or in the works of welfare and rehabilitation for the common
people. This word was discussed in Surah ‘Al-Baqarah. Here it aims
“alms, offerings and contribution”.
Kusaalaa – (the
idlers), this word is plural of kaslaan which has been derived
from kasal. Kasal means idleness, sloth, to shirk from work. Kasalaan is
an adjective from the same.
It is commanded that God Almighty is not indigent of your
wealth. Keep your wealth. State of your intentions is obvious. Afterwards, your
contribution for the help of Muslims will not be accepted, whether you give it
happily or under compulsion. While you have disobeyed God Almighty, did not
care about the Sayings of His Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be
upon Him), offered prayer to show; in weary condition and with difficulty, and
paid contribution with reluctant heart, then you have not been able that your
contribution for the help of Muslims are accepted. We don’t need your wealth.
Allah Almighty observes the condition of the hearts. While your hearts are
insincere, then it is useless to spend the wealth. There is no reward for it.
