88
فَلَمّا دَخَلوا عَلَيهِ قالوا يا أَيُّهَا العَزيزُ مَسَّنا وَأَهلَنَا الضُّرُّ وَجِئنا بِبِضاعَةٍ مُزجاةٍ فَأَوفِ لَنَا الكَيلَ وَتَصَدَّق عَلَينا ۖ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَجزِي المُتَصَدِّقينَ

(Irfan-ul-Quran)

So when they came back to Yusuf ([Joseph] again), they submitted: ‘O ‘Aziz (of Egypt), distress has fallen upon us and our family (and we are suffering from dreadful famine). And we have brought only (this) meager amount. So give us full measure (of grain against it) and (in addition) extend to us (some) charity (as well). Indeed Allah rewards those who give away charity plentiously.’
