Making Provision for Material Needs The first need which the husband has to take care of is the material needs of the family. The husband must make all possible efforts to provide material comforts to his family.

However, if he does not do so, not only does he fails to fulfill his obligation, but also he becomes the target of those verses of the Holy Quran which condemn miserliness. The Holy Book says: Let the stingy not suppose that [their grudging] what Allah has given them out of His bounty is good for them; no, it is bad for them. They will be collared with what they grudge on the Day of Resurrection.

To Allah belongs the heritage of the heavens and the earth, and Allah is well aware of what you do (Q. 3: 180) The people who, due to their stinginess, don’t spend on their families, the society, the poor and the needy and they don’t spend in the way of Allah, will find their stinginess hung in the form of a collar around their necks. A stingy man is detested by God and by man. Miserliness is one of the negative traits in men.

In fact, it is one of the traits that extinguish love in the family and in the society at large.Thus, if a man can afford to keep his family in comfort, but refuses to do so, his family will never respect him or love him. A man should endeavour to fulfill the needs of his family to the best of his capabilities. He should, at least fulfill their basic needs of food, clothing and shelter, and if possible get the children married etc.
