It reminds me that It's easy to think of 'spending' as just money, but honestly, what about my time? My energy? The things I know that could benefit someone else? Am I holding them back, or using these blessings also, the way Allah intends?
Then it reminds me that self-care isn't selfish. Pushing myself too hard, neglecting my health... that's destructive too. It's about finding balance – being generous to others and myself.

In my tadabbur class last night, we were learning and discussing this verse and I find it very interesting. Allah said, 'And spend in the way of Allah and do not throw (yourselves) with your (own) hands into destruction (by refraining). And do good; indeed, Allah loves the doers of good.'.
Well, if I were to take the verse wholly and literally, Allah asked us to not be bakhil or stingy because then we are throwing ourselves into destruction. Bu...
