Question:
One of the brothers says: Your Excellency the Shaykh, what is the exegesis of the saying of Allah the Exalted:[At-Tawbah 9:79]?
Answer:
The reason for the revelation of the verse is that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) strongly encouraged charity, so the people rushed to give. One man came with a small amount because he could not afford a large one, so some of the hypocrites slandered him. He had come with a small amount, so some of the hypocrites slandered him and said, "Allah is rich and does not need this man's charity." So Allah revealed this verse, or something to that effect. Allah knows best.
