Q 2:
A woman gave a sum of money as Amanah (trust) to someone and he wasted this money. The woman has knowledge of this and forgives him. What is the ruling on this?
(Part No. 15; Page No. 411)
A:
The Shari`ah commands us to safeguard the wealth and prohibits wasting it. Allah (Exalted be He) says:
But spend not wastefully (your wealth) in the manner of a spendthrift.
It is authentically reported that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: forbade wasting money.The person who is entrusted with the money and then wasted it, shall pay the equal value. However, if the owner of the money pardons his right, there is no harm on him. May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
