Responsible Spending by Ustadh Nouman Ali Khan 

The people who spend money, when they spend money, they don't spend too much, and they are not cheap either. They are right in between. When you go shopping, you say, 'aaah - I make good money...put it all in.' 'I will take two of these!' 'I will take three of those!' 'I will take five of those!' 'What's the biggest TV you have? I wanna TV that doesn't even go through my door!' 'Give me that one!' You know...'What's the most expensive car? What's the most...?' You know, you just wanna show people how much money you got! You just wanna Pay! Pay! Pay! You can eat food at a restaurant, but you wanna go to a restaurant where they charge you 200 riyaal's to sit down first. You are spending too much. You are spending too much! Right? Allah says the people who spend, but they are responsible when they spend. They are responsible when they spend and they are not cheap either. You don't go to the store with your wife to get the cereal & the milk & the vegetables & she's putting milk and you are like, 'you gonna drink all that milk? You need all that milk! Get the small one!' Hey! Don't do that! You know, don't be cheap either. You have to have a balance in the budget. Let me tell you something, the economic crisis in the world, the fall of the European economy, the fall of the American economy that it's barely recovering from, You know where it came from? It came from people spending irresponsibly & then institutions spending irresponsibly & then government spending irresponsibly & saying we can just put it on credit card, put it on the credit card, put it on the credit card. People got approved for mortgages for their homes far more than they can afford & they said, 'we are approved, go for it!' You get your credit check & you can lease a car, its more expensive than you can afford but hey, I'll just make the minimum payments, I'm okay & people built upon this debt because they didn't spend, they spent outside of their means. Quran is teaching us! Quran is teaching us! That when you spend money, don't spend money that's not in your pocket. Don't take loans. Don't be addicted to your credit card. Don't be like that! Spend within your means. Spend within your budget. You know, the only time the Muslim gets careful about spending is when they have to give sadaqah! It's the only time; you know, there's a, you know, the box going around & people are collecting saddaqah for the masjid & you say, 'man...electricity bill? Gas? School? There is so much!' The whole budget for your family comes up in front of you. You become a certified professional accountant, You know. But then when you go to the, the video game store or the electronic store & you are buying the new gadget, the new phone; the tablet; or you are buying the movie or whatever, the whole budget doesn't come in front of your eyes. You don't say, 'what about the gas!  What about the electricity!'  You just spend it!  You just spend it! We have to be responsible spenders.
