A benefit extracted from Tafsir As-Si'dee rahimahul-llah

Imam Abdur-Rahmaan bin Naasir As-Si'dee rahimahul-llah (died year 1376) commented on verse 3 in Al-Baqarah {Who believe in the unseen, establish the prayer and spend out from what We have provided for them} : 

"At many times the exalted combined between the prayer and the Zakaah in the Qur'aan. This is because the prayer entails sincerity to the worshiped, and Zakaah and spending entail being good to his servants. So the rubric of happiness of the servant is in him being sincere to the worshiped and exerting effort to benefit the creation. Similarly the rubric of the unhappiness of the servant is having no sincerity nor being good" End
