Reported by Abu Umamah (RA): Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said, “O son of Adam, if you spend the surplus, it will be better for you; and if you retain it, it will be evil for you. You will not be reprimanded for storing what is enough for your need. First of all spend upon those who are your dependents.” [Tirmidhi - Riyad us Saliheen, Chapter 56, 510] This hadith refers to the culture of hoarding and being miserly. Spend in the path of Allah, and you will see the returns in this life and the next.
