Verily Allah does not love the one who is proud, boastful.

"Those who are niggardly and enjoin people to niggardliness and hide what Allah has given them out of His grace; and We have prepared for the disbelievers a humiliating chastisement." Hypocritical and Godly Charities This verse, in fact, is the continuation of the subject of the former verses which refers to the arrogant persons and haughty ones. Such persons not only refrain from doing good to human beings themselves, but also invite people to niggardliness.

It says: "Those who are niggardly and enjoin people to niggardliness ..." Moreover, they often try to conceal that which Allah has bestowed them out of His Grace lest people of their society expect something from them. "... and hide what Allah has given them out of His grace...." Then, the Qur'an states about the fate and the end of these persons as this: "...

and We have prepared for the disbelievers a humiliating chastisement." Perhaps the key to the secret of mentioning the word 'the disbelievers' in this verse is that: 'niggardliness' often originates from infidelity, because the niggardly persons, indeed, have not a complete faith upon the endless merits of Allah unto the good-doers.

"And (the arrogant ones are) those who spend their wealth to be seen by people and neither believe in Allah nor in the Last Day; and anyone whose companion be Satan, (what) an evil companion then he is!" Sometimes Satan whispers and tempts something from a long distance into some persons, and sometimes it does it from a short distance. The believers usually flee from the temptations of Satan, but sometimes Satan becomes as a constant friend and companion of some people.

It may approach them very nigh, and in a manner that Surah Al-Zukhruf, No.43, verse 36 refers to.
