Israf
الإسراف
Text Size:
Israf refers to "Extravagance" or "Wastefulness" in all aspects of life, including wealth, food, and time. Islam strongly prohibits Israf, as the Quran describes those who waste as the "brothers of Satan." It is considered an act of ingratitude toward Allah’s blessings. Israf not only damages an individual's economic standing but also has negative social and environmental impacts. Muslims are encouraged to practice "Wasatiyyah" (moderation), ensuring that their consumption is purposeful and that they remain mindful of the needs of the less fortunate within the community.
