ALMS-GIVING IS AN IMPORTANT MEANS IN SOLVING THE PROBLEMS OF CLASS DISTINCTION. Verse 261

      Alms giving is an important matter on which Islam has laid a heavy stress. This is why perhaps these verses follow those about Resurrection Day.

      There is no doubt that alms-giving is an effective means of salvation, and the parable of those who spend their wealth for the sake of God is illustrated by QURÄN as follows: ``the parable of those who spend their substance for the cause of Allah is the likeness of a grain of corn that sprouts seven ears, and each bears a hundred grain.'' The reward of the alms giver is not limited to that amount and according to the verse: ``Allah makes that two fold, or manifold for whom He wills.'' Such a high reward might be due to the giver's merits, sincerity, or purity of faith.
