بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ

4.37

الَّذِیْنَ یَبْخَلُوْنَ وَ یَاْمُرُوْنَ النَّاسَ بِالْبُخْلِ وَ یَكْتُمُوْنَ مَاۤ اٰتٰىهُمُ اللّٰهُ مِنْ فَضْلِهٖؕ-وَ اَعْتَدْنَا لِلْكٰفِرِیْنَ عَذَابًا مُّهِیْنًاۚ (37)

Kanz ul Iman Kanz ul Irfan

English translation of Kanz-ul-Irfan

Those who are miserly and urge others to be miserly and conceal that which Allah has granted them with His grace ˹there is a grave warning for them˺[1] —and We have prepared a humiliating punishment for the disbelievers.

Commentary

“بخل” (stinginess) in Islam is defined as an inability to fulfil something for which one is responsible by necessity. However, here, miserly refers to the Jews concealing the attributes of the Final Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم which were mentioned in the Torah. Some Quranic commentators are of the opinion that it means stinginess in spending wealth.
