Surah Ar-Rum Ayah 39

وَمَآ ءَاتَيْتُم مِّن رِّبًا لِّيَرْبُوَا۟ فِىٓ أَمْوَٰلِ ٱلنَّاسِ فَلَا يَرْبُوا۟ عِندَ ٱللَّهِ ۖ وَمَآ ءَاتَيْتُم مِّن زَكَوٰةٍ تُرِيدُونَ وَجْهَ ٱللَّهِ فَأُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلْمُضْعِفُونَ

In Saheeh International's English translation, Quran 30:39 says: “And whatever you give for interest [i.e., advantage] to increase within the wealth of people<sup foot_note=197051>1</sup> will not increase with Allāh. But what you give in zakāh,<sup foot_note=197050>2</sup> desiring the face [i.e., approval] of Allāh - those are the multipliers.<sup foot_note=197049>3</sup>”
