Aya 28
28
لِيَشهَدوا مَنافِعَ لَهُم وَيَذكُرُوا اسمَ اللَّهِ في أَيّامٍ مَعلوماتٍ عَلىٰ ما رَزَقَهُم مِن بَهيمَةِ الأَنعامِ ۖ فَكُلوا مِنها وَأَطعِمُوا البائِسَ الفَقيرَ

(Muntakhab)

"They shall be eager to respond to your call to observe facts and events considered a source of knowledge, and to participate in the intercourse of life and envisage the spiritual and the deeply moving sacred events and associations dating back as the most ancient times." "And they will extoll and proclaim the glorious attributes of Allah throughout the predetermined days in appreciation of Allah's blessings, and be impelled to the feeling of gratitude and gratefulness for what He provided for them of cattle for sacrifice, and to fulfill what He has enjoined" Thus: "Eat there from if you may and feed the indigent and the needy who are in need of Zakat (alms), " for zakat is but the vehicle of prayer.
