SHAFAQNA – Imam Reza (AS) was asked about the family expenses and he replied: Family expenses are in the middle of two bad (methods). Imam (AS) was asked: What are those two bad (methods)? Imam Reza (AS) replied: Are you not aware that Allah (SWT) does not like extravagance and miserliness and says in the holy Quran: Those who give, neither are extravagant nor miserly and settle in between the two [1]?
