Qur'an 20160217

In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.

219.  They ask you concerning wine and gambling.  Say, "In them is great sin and some benefit for humans, but the sin is greater than the benefit."  They ask you how much they are to spend; say, "What is beyond your needs."  Thus does Allah make clear to you God's Signs, in order that you may consider,

220.  On this life and the hereafter.  They ask you concerning orphans.  Say, "The best thing to do is for their good."  If you mix their affairs with yours, they are your brethren.  But Allah knows the man who means mischief from the man who means good.  And if Allah had willed, God could have put you into difficulties.  God is indeed Exalted in Power, Wise.

(The Heifer 2:219-220)
