Surah At-Tawbah 9:53

(Say), O Muhammad to them,

(Do you wait for us), anything,

(except one of the two best things), martyrdom or victory over you, according to the meaning given by Ibn `Abbas, Mujahid, Qatadah, and others.

(while we await for you), that this will touch you,

(either that Allah will afflict you with a punishment from Himself or at our hands), either capture or killing,

(So wait, we too are waiting with you.) Allah said next,

(Say: Spend willingly or unwillingly), for whatever you spend either way,

(it will not be accepted from you. Verily, you are ever a people who are rebellious.) Allah mentions the reason behind not accepting their charity from them,

(except that they disbelieved in Allah and in His Messenger. ) and the deeds are accepted if they are preceded with faith,

(and that they came not to the Salah except in a lazy state.) Therefore, they neither have good intention nor eagerness to perform the acts of faith,

(And nothing prevents their contributions from being accepted from them except that they disbelieved in Allah and in His Messenger, and that they came not to the Salah (the prayer) except in a lazy state, and that they offer not contributions but unwillingly.) The Truthful, to whom the Truth was revealed, Muhammad, peace be upon him, said that Allah does not stop giving rewards until you (believers) stop performing good deeds, and that Allah is Tayyib Good and Pure and only accepts what is Tayyib. This is why Allah does not accept charity or good deeds from the people described in these Ayat, because He only accepts it from those who have Taqwa.

Ayat ini menerangkan bahwa bagaimana pun juga orang-orang munafik menginfakkan harta bendanya untuk membantu perjuangan orang-orang mukmin, baik karena harta benda itu diserahkan dengan sepenuh hatinya, sesuai dengan perintah Allah untuk keselamatan dirinya, maupun secara terpaksa, karena takut kepada azab yang akan menimpanya, namun Allah tidak akan menerimanya, karena mereka tetap ragu-ragu kepada agama yang dibawa oleh Nabi Besar Muhammad dan tidak percaya akan adanya pembalasan di akhirat nanti atas segala perbuatan yang mereka lakukan di dunia ini. Allah akan menerima baik amalan apa saja apabila amalan itu dikerjakan bukan karena ria tetapi karena keikhlasan dan takwa kepada Allah. Sabda Nabi Muhammad:

Sesungguhnya Allah swt tidak akan menerima amalan kecuali apabila dikerjakan dengan ikhlas dan dimaksudkan semata-mata karena Allah. (Riwayat an-Nasa'i dari Abu Umamah)

Firman Allah:

Sesungguhnya Allah hanya menerima (amal) dari orang yang bertakwa. (al-Ma'idah/5: 27)
