Amir al-Mu'minin Ali (peace be upon him) says about management of financial affairs of the family:

"Good economic management increases small wealth, and bad economic management destroys great wealth."

In providing for the family financially, if people do not follow the related laws and formulas, their financial growth will not be satisfactory in the sight of both God and themselves, and they will no be able to experience (having) blessed wealth and a happy and calm life.

The principle of moderation in finance has two pitfalls:

The first one is to take moderation too far, which will turn into stinginess in life.
The other one is to follow moderation too loosely which will lead to Prodigality and consumerism.

The important point which is emphasized in the matter of finance, is that one should pay attention not to be stingy with costs and finance, since this approach will result in poverty (not spending, and being afraid of spending, will cause financial failure) and on the other hand not be very consumptive and dissipative, which will also lead to poverty and (financial) failure.

► God says in Quran:

"O you who have faith! Do not prohibit the good things that Allah has made lawful to you, and do not transgress. Indeed Allah does not like the transgressors."

Following moderation in the matter of finance and not moving toward the extremes, will cause people to see it's good results in life, first of which is the freedom from financial crisis.

Imam Ali (a) says:" one who is frugal in wealthiness and poverty, is indeed prepared for the calamities of time."
