Moderation in spending

Moderation in spending has dual benefits:

First, it guards against excessiveness. Practicing moderation helps us avoid greed and overindulgence.

Secondly, moderation also supports physical and mental health. In managing finances, Islam emphasises avoiding wastefulness and debt, as reflected in the Prophet’s supplication which means: "I seek refuge with You from the burden of debt and the oppression of people." (Hadith narrated by Imam Abu Dawud)
