8 Preface لِلفُقَراءِ المُهاجِرينَ الَّذينَ أُخرِجوا مِن دِيارِهِم وَأَموالِهِم يَبتَغونَ فَضلًا مِنَ اللَّهِ وَرِضوانًا وَيَنصُرونَ اللَّهَ وَرَسولَهُ ۚ أُولٰئِكَ هُمُ الصّادِقونَYusuf Ali(Some part is due) to the indigent Muhājirs,1 those who were expelled from their homes and their property, while seeking Grace from God and (His) Good Pleasure, and aiding God and His Messenger. such are indeed the sincere ones:-The Muhājirs are those who forsook their homes and property in Mecca in order to assist the Prophet in his migration to Medīna (Hijrat). Their devotion and sincerity were proved beyond doubt by their self-denial, and they were now to be rewarded.
