In this verse which is the sixth about charity, it is made clear as what is to be given as alms - and that is something good and valuable which has honourably been earned: ``O, Believers! Give alms of the good things that you have earned, and of that we have produced for you from the earth.'' That which is produced in nature and can be referred to, as God's bounty. In fact this is what Allah has granted to you, and you should give the choice part, and the best of it for the cause of God. The verse then puts stress on the matter that you should intend not to give the bad ones of it for your charity. Some people are used to give in charity, what seems to them out of use and worthless! Such a gift is no better than nothing, and is strictly prohibitd in Islam. There is a fine hint in this verse, because in one side of the charity stands God who is free of all wants, and on the other side the needy believer and faithful to God whose personality and spiritual dignity is high. Therefore giving worthless or low value things in charity is to despise the believers and to disregard Allah.
