The Sin of Hoarding

SUMMARY: Hoarding is a sin.

Ma'mar b. Abdullah reported Allah's Messenger as saying: No one hoards but the sinner.
حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو الأَشْعَثِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا حَاتِمُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَجْلاَنَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ عَطَاءٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ، عَنْ مَعْمَرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ قَالَ ‏ "‏ لاَ يَحْتَكِرُ إِلاَّ خَاطِئٌ

QUICK LESSONS:
Share resources with those who are less fortunate than yourself
EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith from Ma'mar b. Abdullah states that hoarding is a sin. Hoarding is the act of collecting and storing goods for personal gain or to prevent others from having access to them. It can be seen as an extreme form of greed and avarice, where one person takes more than their fair share and deprives others of what they need or deserve. This hadith serves as a reminder that such behavior is not acceptable in Islam and should be avoided at all costs. It also teaches us the importance of sharing resources with those who are less fortunate than ourselves so that everyone has enough to live comfortably without resorting to hoarding out of fear or greed.
