وَمَا مَنَعَهُمْ أَن تُقْبَلَ مِنْهُمْ نَفَقَـٰتُهُمْ إِلَّآ أَنَّهُمْ كَفَرُوا۟ بِٱللَّهِ وَبِرَسُولِهِۦ وَلَا يَأْتُونَ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ إِلَّا وَهُمْ كُسَالَىٰ وَلَا يُنفِقُونَ إِلَّا وَهُمْ كَـٰرِهُونَ

Translations of Quran 9:54
EnglishTalal Itani

What prevents the acceptance of their contributions is nothing but the fact that they disbelieved in Allah and His Messenger, and that they do not approach the prayer except lazily, and that they do not spend except grudgingly.

EnglishPickthall, 1930

And naught preventeth that their contributions should be accepted from them save that they have disbelieved in Allah and in His messenger, and they come not to worship save as idlers, and pay not (their contribution) save reluctantly.

TurkishElmalılı Hamdi Yazır, 1935

Kendilerinden nefakalarının kabul olunmasına mani' olan da sırf şudur: çünkü bunlar Allaha ve Resulüne küfrettiler ve namaza ancak üşene üşene geliyorlar, verdiklerinide ancak istemiyerek veriyorlar

FrenchKazimirski, 1840

Quel autre obstacle y a-t-il à ce que leurs dons ne soient pas acceptés, si ce n’est qu’ils ne croient pas en Dieu et à son apôtre, qu’ils ne font la prière qu’avec nonchalance, qu’ils ne font l’aumône qu’à contrecœur.

DutchKeyzer, 1860, from Kazimirski's French

En niets verhindert hunne gaven aan te nemen, dan dat zij niet in God en zijn apostel gelooven, en dat zij het gebed niet anders dan onachtzaam verrichten, en hun geld voor Gods geloof slechts onwillig besteden.

ItalianCalza, 1847, from Kazimirski's French

Qual’altro ostacolo havvi perchè i loro doni non siano accettati se non perchè non credono a Dio, ed al suo apostolo, che fanno la preghiera con noncuranza, e che fanno l’elemosina di cattiva voglia?
