57:10

وَمَا لَكُمْ اَلَّا تُنْفِقُوا فٖی سَبٖیلِ اللّٰهِ وَلِلّٰهِ مٖیرَاثُ السَّمٰوَاتِ وَالْاَرْضِؕ لَا یَسْتَوٖی مِنْكُمْ مَنْ اَنْفَقَ مِنْ قَبْلِ الْفَتْحِ وَقَاتَلَؕ اُو𐻾لٰٓئِكَ اَعْظَمُ دَرَجَةً مِنَ الَّذٖینَ اَنْفَقُوا مِنْ بَعْدُ وَقَاتَلُواؕ وَكُلًّا وَعَدَ اللّٰهُ الْحُسْنٰىؕ وَاللّٰهُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ خَبٖیرٌࣖ

Wama lakum alla tunfiqoo fee sabeeli Allahi walillahi meerathu alssamawati waalardi la yastawee minkum man anfaqa min qabli alfathi waqatala olaika aAAthamu darajatan mina allatheena anfaqoo min baAAdu waqataloo wakullan waAAada Allahu alhusna waAllahu bima taAAmaloona khabeerun

Translations

And why do you not spend in the cause of Allah while to Allah belongs the heritage of the heavens and the earth? Not equal among you are those who spent before the conquest [of Makkah] and fought [and those who did so after it]. Those are greater in degree than they who spent afterwards and fought. But to all Allah has promised the best [reward]. And Allah, with what you do, is Acquainted

Saheeh International

And what aileth you that ye spend not in the way of Allah when unto Allah belongeth the inheritance of the heavens and the earth? Those who spent and fought before the victory are not upon a level (with the rest of you). Such are greater in rank than those who spent and fought afterwards. Unto each hath Allah promised good. And Allah is Informed of what ye do
