سُوْرَةُ الرَّعْدِ
Surah Ar-Ra'd (13) — Ayah 22
وَٱلَّذِينَ صَبَرُوا۟ ٱبْتِغَآءَ وَجْهِ رَبِّهِمْ وَأَقَامُوا۟ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ وَأَنفَقُوا۟ مِمَّا رَزَقْنَـٰهُمْ سِرًّا وَعَلَانِيَةً وَيَدْرَءُونَ بِٱلْحَسَنَةِ ٱلسَّيِّئَةَ أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ لَهُمْ عُقْبَى ٱلدَّارِ ﴿22﴾
Translation by Dr. Muhammad Muhsin Khan & Dr. Taqi-ud-Din al-Hilali
And those who remain patient, seeking their Lord’s Countenance, perform As-Salât (Iqâmat-as-Salât), and spend out of that which We have bestowed on them, secretly and openly, and defend evil with good, for such there is a good end.

22. 1 They avoid disobedience to Allah and sins. This is one type of patience. They endure hardships and trials with patience; this is the second type. People of understanding practice both types of patience.
22. 2 with its limits and timings, with humility, submissiveness, and moderation in the pillars. Not according to their own invented ways.
22. 3 That is, wherever and whenever there is a need to spend, they spend among their own and strangers, both secretly and openly.
22. 4 That is, if someone treats them badly, they respond with goodness, or act with forgiveness and beautiful patience. As Allah Almighty has said in another place: '(اِدْفَعْ بالَّتِيْ هِىَ اَحْسَنُ فَاِذَا الَّذِيْ بَيْنَكَ وَبَيْنَهٗ عَدَاوَةٌ كَاَنَّهٗ وَلِيٌّ حَمِيْمٌ) 41. Ha Mim As-Sajdah: 34. Repel evil with that which is better (if you do so), then the one between whom and you there was enmity will become as though he was a devoted friend.'
22. 5 That is, those who possess high morals and are characterized by the aforementioned qualities, for them is the home of the Hereafter.
