Al-Layl 92:17–21
He will be well pleased
وَسَيُجَنَّبُهَا ٱلْأَتْقَى ١٧ ٱلَّذِى يُؤْتِى مَالَهُۥ يَتَزَكَّىٰ ١٨ وَمَا لِأَحَدٍ عِندَهُۥ مِن نِّعْمَةٍۢ تُجْزَىٰٓ ١٩ إِلَّا ٱبْتِغَآءَ وَجْهِ رَبِّهِ ٱلْأَعْلَىٰ ٢٠ وَلَسَوْفَ يَرْضَىٰ ٢١
The meaning, simply
The most mindful will be kept far from it: the one who gives his wealth to purify himself, not to repay a favour anyone did him, but only seeking the face of his Lord Most High. And he will be given in Paradise until he is well pleased.
