Beware of Stinginess in All Its Forms
The shaikh, Dr. Muḥammad ibn Ghālib Al-ʿUmarī, may Allāh protect him, said:
Stinginess is of different kinds. There’s being stingy with wealth, stingy about showing noble, generous character and manners, and stingy about paying visits and keeping ties [to the degree] that’s required [in Islam].
And from the very worst that stinginess gets is a child being stingy towards his parents, a husband towards his wife, and a father towards his children.
Stinginess is reprehensible—there’s no good in it—and it’s condemnable—there’s nothing good to say about it.
It drives [people’s] hearts away, leads to coldness and distancing [among people], and removes feelings of love and affection.

البخل أنواع
فبخل بالمال، وبخل بالأخلاق الكريمة، وبخل بالزيارة والصلة الواجبة.
ومن أشدّ ما يكون البخل؛ أن يبخل الولد على أبويه، والزوج على زوجته، والأب على أبنائه.
البخل قُبحٌ لا حُسن فيه، ومذمة لا مدح فيها.
ينفّر القلوب، ويورث الجفاء، ويُذهب المودة.— د.محمد بن غالب العُمري (@m_g_alomari) April 28, 2022
