WASTING IS A SIN

“Kulu washrabu wala tusrifu.” (Sura Araf:31) Allah has given a command: “Eat, drink, and do not waste.” Wasting is forbidden (haram). We need to recognize a benediction (nima) as a benediction and respect it. This becomes a blessing (baraka) for people. If you do not recognize it as a blessing, disrespect it, and say, “What? What is this?” then Allah (JJ) would take away that baraka from it and that time you would gain nothing.
