and do not do a favor for a greater return3,

Notes

[3] Or: do not consider your good deeds as a favor to Allah, thinking of your little deeds as abundant.

And give not a thing in order to have more (or consider not your deeds of obedience to Allâh as a favour to Him).

And show not favour, seeking wordly gain!

Nor expect, in giving, any increase (for thyself)!

And bestow not favors that you may receive again with increase,

And be not bountiful, (hoping) to gain more,
