Surah Al-Baqarah (البقرة), verse 272 — reference 2:272. Arabic text with optional translation and free audio on Al-Qalam.

۞ لَّيْسَ عَلَيْكَ هُدَىٰهُمْ وَلَـٰكِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَهْدِى مَن يَشَآءُ ۗ وَمَا تُنفِقُوا۟ مِنْ خَيْرٍ فَلِأَنفُسِكُمْ ۚ وَمَا تُنفِقُونَ إِلَّا ٱبْتِغَآءَ وَجْهِ ٱللَّهِ ۚ وَمَا تُنفِقُوا۟ مِنْ خَيْرٍ يُوَفَّ إِلَيْكُمْ وَأَنتُمْ لَا تُظْلَمُونَ

laysa ʿalayka hudāhum walākinna l-laha yahdī man yashāu wamā tunfiqū min khayrin fali-anfusikum wamā tunfiqūna illā ib'tighāa wajhi l-lahi wamā tunfiqū min khayrin yuwaffa ilaykum wa-antum lā tuẓ'lamūna

Not upon you, [O Muḥammad], is [responsibility for] their guidance, but Allāh guides whom He wills. And whatever good you [believers] spend is for yourselves, and you do not spend except seeking the face [i.e., approval] of Allāh. And whatever you spend of good - it will be fully repaid to you, and you will not be wronged.
