وَأَنفِقُوا۟ مِن مَّا رَزَقْنَـٰكُم مِّن قَبْلِ أَن يَأْتِىَ أَحَدَكُمُ ٱلْمَوْتُ فَيَقُولَ رَبِّ لَوْلَآ أَخَّرْتَنِىٓ إِلَىٰٓ أَجَلٍ قَرِيبٍ فَأَصَّدَّقَ وَأَكُن مِّنَ ٱلصَّـٰلِحِينَ
Wa anifqoo mim maa razaqnaakum min qabli any-yaatiya ahadakumul mawtu fa yaqoola rabbi law laaa akhkhartaneee ilaaa ajalin qareebin fa assaddaqa wa akum minassaaliheen
Rozdawajcie z tego, w co was zaopatrzyliśmy, zanim przyjdzie śmierć do któregoś z was. Wtedy on powie: "Panie mój ! Gdybyś mi dał trochę czasu, żebym mógł dawać jałmużnę i być sprawiedliwy!"
And spend from what we have provided you, before death comes to one of you and he says, "My Lord, if only you would delay me for a little while longer, so I might give in charity and be among the righteous."
The surah has spent its opening on men who used withholding as a weapon, urging others to cut off support until the Prophet's companions dispersed, and the instruction to believers here reverses that exactly. What the dying man asks for is short, a small extension of his term, and what he wants it for is to give. The verse immediately after closes the request before it can be entertained.
