M.Pickthall
177. It is not righteousness that ye turn your faces to the East and the West; but 
righteous is he who believeth in Allah and the Last Day and the angels and the 
Scripture and the Prophets; and giveth his wealth, for love of Him, to kinsfolk and 
to orphans and the needy and the wayfarer and to those who ask, and to set slaves 
free; and observeth proper worship and payeth the poor due. And those who keep their 
treaty when they make one, and the patient in tribulation and adversity and time of 
stress. Such are they who are sincere. Such are the God fearing.
Yusuf Ali 
177. It is not righteousness that ye turn your faces toward East or West; but it is 
righteousness to believe in Allah and the Last Day and the Angels and the Book and 
the Messengers; to spend of your substance out of love for Him for your kin for 
orphans for the needy for the wayfarer for those who ask and for the ransom of 
slaves; to be steadfast in prayer and practice regular charity; to fulfil the 
contracts which ye have made; and to be firm and patient in pain (or suffering) and 
adversity and throughout all periods of panic.  Such are the people of truth the 
Allah-fearing.
