Infāq (Arabic: إنفاق) is an Arabic word meaning "spending, disbursement;"[1] but also carries the sense of doing so simply to please God without asking for any favor or hoping for a return.[2][3]
The word ʾinfāq is mentioned once in the Qurʾān in Q17:100. The imperative form of the verb (ʾanfiqū) (أَنفِقُوا) appears 18 times in the Qurʾān [4] Similar wording is found at Q8:3; Q14:31; Q22:35; Q28:54; Q32:16.[2]
The word ʾinfāq shares the same triliteral root with the word nifāq (ن ف ق, nūn fā qāf), meaning hypocrisy.
Infāq is different from zakat, which is obligatory on Muslims, or sadaqah, which is charity for obtaining specific return or protection from some adverse event.
