DENYING A DEPENDANT

|H 294

“It is a sin for a person to deny the right of a dependent. It is indeed
a sin for a person to withhold what is due from one whose living
depends upon him.”

Abu Daud and Muslim with a chain up to Abdullah the son of Amr, son of Al 'As who
related that the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, said this.

SPEND ON YOUR DEPENDENTS

|H 511

“O son of Adam, if you were to spend whatever is left over it will be
better for you. If you withhold it, it will be evil for you. You will not be
blamed for keeping that which you need. Begin by spending upon
your dependents.”
