[02] Surah Al-Baqarah [The Cow]
Ayat 244. And fight in the Way of Allah and know that Allah is All-Hearer, All-Knower.
Ayat 245. Who is he that will lend to Allah a goodly loan so that He may multiply it to him many times? And it is Allah that decreases or increases (your provisions), and unto Him you shall return.
Tafseer of Surah Al-Baqarah Ayat 244. Then fight in the cause of Allah, and know that Allah Heareth and know all things. For Allah's cause we must fight, but never to satisfy our own selfish passions or greed, for the warning is repeated: "Allah heareth and know all things"; all deeds, words, and motives are perfectly open before Him, however we might conceal them from men or even from ourselves. See 2:216. Who is he that will loan to Allah a beautiful loan, which Allah will double unto his credit and multiply many times? It is Allah that giveth (you) Want or plenty, and to Him shall be your return. Spending in the cause of Allah is called metaphorically "a beautiful loan". It is excellent in many ways: (1) it shows a beautiful spirit of self-denial; (2) in other loans there may be a doubt as to the safety of your capital or any return thereon; here you give to the Lord of All, in Whose hands are the keys of want or plenty; giving, you may have manifold blessings, and withholding, you may even lose what you have. If we remember that our goal is Allah, can we turn away from His cause? (Cf. 64:17 and 3:180-181).
English Translation of Hadith
Hazrat Abu Masud (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: A man came to the Messenger of Allah 
[SAWW](PBUH) with a she-camel wearing an ornament nose-string and said: "This is (a gift) in the Cause of Allah.'' The Messenger of Allah [SAWW](PBUH) replied, "You will have in return for it on the Day of Resurrection seven hundred she-camels and every one of them will be wearing a nose-string.'' [Muslim Hadith # 4663].
Lesson: as mentioned above in Surah Al-Baqarah Ayat 245. Who is he that will lend to Allah a goodly loan so that He may multiply it to him many times? This Hadith mentions the reward which will be given on the Day of Resurrection on virtues. Every virtue will be given at least a ten-fold reward but it will go to the extent of seven hundred times or more. Thus, this Hadith has glad tidings of a reward of seven hundred times of a good action.
