Translation by Dr. Muhammad Muhsin Khan & Dr. Taqi-ud-Din al-Hilali

Truly those who believe, and do deeds of righteousness, and perform As-Salât (Iqâmat-as-Salât), and give Zakât they will have their reward with their Lord. On them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve.

Based on over 45 years of teaching and research, this tafsir follows the methodology of Tafsir bil-Ma'thur — interpreting the Quran through authentic Hadith, statements of the Companions, and the understanding of the early generations (Salaf). It is distinguished by its complete avoidance of Israeliyyat (Judeo-Christian narratives) and unverified reports. The tafsir is originally written in Urdu, translated to English by tohed.com.

(Ayah 277){اِنَّ الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا …:} Allah Almighty mentions both disbelief and faith together, so that both aspects remain in view. The purpose of mentioning the believers among the verses about riba is that faith, righteous deeds, prayer, and zakat are important means of avoiding usurious transactions.

277. Indeed, those who believe and do righteous deeds [397], establish prayer, and give zakat, their reward is with their Lord. They will have no fear, nor will they grieve.

[397] This verse has been placed in the middle so that the condition of the God-fearing people may be mentioned in contrast to the usurers, as you will observe throughout the Noble Quran that wherever the people of Hell are mentioned, the people of Paradise are also mentioned alongside, and vice versa. After this, the discussion on the subject of usury is continued. At this point, two extremely important qualities of the believers are mentioned. One is the establishment of Salah, which is the most important of the physical acts of worship. The other is the giving of Zakah, which is the most important of the financial acts of worship and is also the direct opposite of usury. If the economic system of Islam is to be described in extremely brief words, it consists of only two components: one negative, the other positive. The negative aspect is the eradication of the system of usury, and the positive aspect is the promotion of the system of Zakah.
