Advice to One Afflicted with Extravagance

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner from Damascus says: I am afflicted with the habit of extravagance, and I do not know how to get rid of it. Please guide me, may Allah guide you?

Answer:
It is obligatory for the woman and the man to be cautious of extravagance, and that all of his actions be conducted with economy and without extravagance; because Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) said:
And be not excessive. Indeed, He does not like those who commit excess.وَلا تُسْرِفُوا إِنَّهُ لا يُحِبُّ الْمُسْرِفِينَ
[Al-An'am: 141] and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Eat, drink, wear clothes and give sadaqah but with neither extravagance nor pride.كل واشرب، والبس وتصدق في غير إسراف ولا مخيلة
Bulugh al-Maram 16:17
.
So it is obligatory for you to strive until you do what is required without extravagance; because this harms you, and harms your husband if you have a husband. So it is obligatory for you to fear Allah, and to do what is appropriate in terms of economy and not wasting money. Yes.

The presenter : May Allah reward you with good.
