فِی الدُّنْیَا وَالْاٰخِرَةِ وَیَسْـَٔلُوْنَكَ عَنِ الْیَتٰمٰی قُلْ اِصْلَاحٌ لَّهُمْ خَیْرٌ وَاِنْ تُخَالِطُوْهُمْ فَاِخْوَانُكُمْ وَاللّٰهُ یَعْلَمُ الْمُفْسِدَ مِنَ الْمُصْلِحِ وَلَوْ شَآءَ اللّٰهُ لَاَعْنَتَكُمْ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ عَزِیْزٌ حَكِیْمٌ ۟

Fid dunyaa wal aakhirah; wa yas'aloonaka 'anil yataamaa qul islaahullahum khayr, wa in tukhaalitoohum fa ikhwaanukum; wallaahu ya'lamul mufsida minalmuslih; wa law shaaa'al laahu la-a'natakum; innal laaha 'Azeezun Hakeem

(Their bearings) on this life and the Hereafter. They ask thee concerning orphans. Say: "The best thing to do is what is for their good; if ye 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 wished, He could have put you into difficulties: He is indeed Exalted in Power, Wise."
