Spend In The Way Of Allah In These Ten Best Days -- Don't Withhold Your Wealth

Spend In The Way Of Allah In These Ten Best Days -- Don't Withhold Your Wealth

The believers are required to spend in Allah's way which will help them in the Hereafter where they will need their righteous works most pressingly. That is where they will be rewarded. 

The pecuniary obligations, such as zakah that Allah has imposed on the believers is for their own benefit - Allah does not need their money or wealth. In fact, Allah has asked for so little of our wealth that we should discharge our obligation readily and happily. 

Any person practicing miserliness will himself suffer loss or detriment because he will have to carry the burden of failing to fulfill his obligation and thus will be deprived of reward in the Hereafter. Allah is free of want and beyond any need but human is in need of means of comfortable subsistence. So spending in the way of Allah is for our own good and to fulfill our own needs.

Allah Most High says,
Here you are - those invited to spend in the cause of Allah - but among you are those who withhold [out of greed]. And whoever withholds only withholds [benefit] from himself; and Allah is the Free of need, while you are the needy. And if you turn away, He will replace you with another people; then they will not be the likes of you. [Quran, Muhammad 47:38]
