niggardliness
| Verse | Quran |

| 3:180 | And let not those who covetously withhold of the gifts which Allah Hath given them of His Grace, think that it is good for them: Nay, it will be the worse for them: soon shall the things which they covetously withheld be tied to their necks Like a twisted collar, on the Day of Judgment. To Allah belongs the heritage of the heavens and the earth; and Allah is well-acquainted with all that ye do. |
| 4:37 | (Nor) those who are niggardly or enjoin niggardliness on others, or hide the bounties which Allah hath bestowed on them; for We have prepared, for those who resist Faith, a punishment that steeps them in contempt;. |
| 9:34 | O ye who believe! there are indeed many among the priests and anchorites, who in Falsehood devour the substance of men and hinder (them) from the way of Allah. And there are those who bury gold and silver and spend it not in the way of Allah: announce unto them a most grievous penalty. |
| 9:35 | On the Day when heat will be produced out of that (wealth) in the fire of Hell, and with it will be branded their foreheads, their flanks, and their backs, their flanks, and their backs.- "This is the (treasure) which ye buried for yourselves: taste ye, then, the (treasures) ye buried!" |
| 17:29 | Make not thy hand tied (like a niggard's) to thy neck, nor stretch it forth to its utmost reach, so that thou become blameworthy and destitute. |
| 17:100 | Say: "If ye had control of the Treasures of the Mercy of my Lord, behold, ye would keep them back, for fear of spending them: for man is (every) niggardly!" |
| 25:67 | Those who, when they spend, are not extravagant and not niggardly, but hold a just (balance) between those (extremes). |
| 47:37 | If He were to ask you for all of them, and press you, ye would covetously withhold, and He would bring out all your ill-feeling. |
| 47:38 | Behold, ye are those invited to spend (of your substance) in the Way of Allah: But among you are some that are niggardly. But any who are niggardly are so at the expense of their own souls. But Allah is free of all wants, and it is ye that are needy. If ye turn back (from the Path), He will substitute in your stead another people; then they would not be like you! |
| 57:24 | Such persons as are covetous and commend covetousness to men. And if any turn back (from Allah's Way), verily Allah is Free of all Needs, Worthy of all Praise. |
| 64:16 | So fear Allah as much as ye can; listen and obey and spend in charity for the benefit of your own soul and those saved from the covetousness of their own souls,- they are the ones that achieve prosperity. |
| 68:17 | Verily We have tried them as We tried the People of the Garden, when they resolved to gather the fruits of the (garden) in the morning. |
| 68:18 | But made no reservation, ("If it be Allah's Will"). |
| 68:19 | Then there came on the (garden) a visitation from thy Lord, (which swept away) all around, while they were asleep. |
| 68:20 | So the (garden) became, by the morning, like a dark and desolate spot, (whose fruit had been gathered). |
| 68:21 | As the morning broke, they called out, one to another. |
| 68:22 | "Go ye to your tilth (betimes) in the morning, if ye would gather the fruits." |
| 68:23 | So they departed, conversing in secret low tones, (saying). |
| 68:24 | "Let not a single indigent person break in upon you into the (garden) this day." |
| 68:25 | And they opened the morning, strong in an (unjust) resolve. |
