such as are niggardly in their duties and bid people to be niggardly in these too against such there is a severe threat of chastisement. And whoever turns away from what is his duty still God He is indeed huwa ‘He’ is a separating pronoun; a variant reading drops it the Independent without need of anyone other than Him the Praiser of His friends.

"Generosity is close to Allah, close to Paradise, close to the people and far from the Fire. Stinginess is far from Allah, far from Paradise, far from the people and close to the Fire. The ignorant generous person, is more beloved to Allah than the worshiping stingy person."

Jami` at-Tirmidhi #3630`Ali bin Abi Talib narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:Sahih

“The stingy person is the one before whom I am mentioned, and he does not send Salat upon me.”

Sahih al-Bukhari #5089Narrated Abu Huraira:Sahih

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, The example of a miser and a generous person is like that of two persons wearing iron cloaks from the breast upto the neck When the generous person spends, the iron cloak enlarges and spread over his skin so much so that it covers his fingertips and obliterates his tracks. As for the miser, as soon as he thinks of spending every ring of the iron cloak sticks to its place (against his body) and he tries to expand it, but it does not expand. The Prophet (ﷺ) pointed with his hand towards his throat.

Jami` at-Tirmidhi #2102Jabir narrated that the Prophet (s.a.w) said:Sahih

"Whoever is given a gift, then if he finds something let him reciprocate. If he has nothing, then let him mention some praise. For whoever has mentioned some praise, then he has expressed his gratitude. And whoever refrains (from doing so) then he has committed Kufr. And whoever pretends to be satisfied by that which he was not given, he is like the one who wears a garment of falsehood."

Sunan Ibn Majah #3344It was narrated from Abu Dharr that the Prophet (ﷺ) said:

“Whoever wears a garment of pride and vanity, Allah will turn away from him until he takes it off.”
