البقرة — Al-Baqarah Ayat 219
۞ يَسْـَٔلُوْنَكَ عَنِ الْخَمْرِ وَالْمَيْسِرِۗ قُلْ فِيْهِمَآ اِثْمٌ كَبِيْرٌ وَّمَنَافِعُ لِلنَّاسِۖ وَاِثْمُهُمَآ اَكْبَرُ مِنْ نَّفْعِهِمَاۗ وَيَسْـَٔلُوْنَكَ مَاذَا يُنْفِقُوْنَ ەۗ قُلِ الْعَفْوَۗ كَذٰلِكَ يُبَيِّنُ اللّٰهُ لَكُمُ الْاٰيٰتِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَتَفَكَّرُوْنَۙ
Yas'alūnaka ‘anil-khamri wal-maisir(i), qul fīhimā iṡmun kabīrw wa manāfi‘u lin nās(i), wa iṡmuhumā akbaru min naf‘ihimā, wa yas'alūnaka māżā yunfiqūn(a), qulil-‘afw(a), każālika yubayyinullāhu lakumul-āyāti la‘allakum tatafakkarūn(a).
"They ask you about wine and gambling. Say, "In them is great sin and [yet, some] benefit for people. But their sin is greater than their benefit." And they ask you what they should spend. Say, "The excess [beyond needs]." Thus Allah makes clear to you the verses [of revelation] that you might give thought."
