Is not giving alms to the poor one of the five pillars of Islam? I don't read the Qu'ran but that must be in the Book somewhere..

In fact there are many Surahs in the noble Qur'an which talk about helping the poor:
To Name a few:
1- Surah Al-Baqarah.(2)
" If you disclose your charitable expenditures, they are good; but if you conceal them and give them to the poor, it is better for you, and He will remove from you some of your misdeeds [thereby]. And Allah, with what you do, is [fully] Acquainted." (271) of course there are many verses in the Same Surah talking about the same topic.
2- Surah Al- Hashr (59)
" And [also for] those who were settled in AL-Mad?nah and [adopted] the faith before them. They love those who emigrated to them and find not any want in their breasts of what the emigrants were given but give [them] preference over themselves, even though they are in privation. And whoever is protected from the stinginess of his soul ? it is those who will be the successful." (9)
3- Surah Al- Insan (76)
"And they give food in spite of love for it to the needy, the orphan, and the captive, [Saying], "We feed you only for the countenance of Allah. We wish not from you reward or gratitude." (8-9)
