Allah said next,
﴿بَلْ يَدَاهُ مَبْسُوطَتَانِ يُنفِقُ
كَيْفَ يَشَآءُ﴾
(Nay, both His Hands are widely outstretched. He spends (of His bounty) as He wills.)
Allah's favors are ample, His bounty unlimited, as He owns the treasures of everything.
Any good that reaches His servants is from Him alone, without partners. He has created
everything that we need by night or by day, while traveling or at home and in all
situations and conditions. Allah said,
﴿وَآتَاكُم مِّن كُلِّ مَا سَأَلْتُمُوهُ
وَإِن تَعُدُّواْ نِعْمَةَ اللَّهِ لاَ تُحْصُوهَا إِنَّ الإنْسَانَ لَظَلُومٌ كَفَّارٌ
﴾
(And He gave you of all that you asked for, and if you count the blessings of Allah,
never will you be able to count them. Verily, man is indeed an extreme wrongdoer,
an extreme ingrate.) There are many other Ayat on this subject. Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal
said that `Abdur-Razzaq narrated to him that Ma`mar said that Hammam bin Munabbih
said, "This is what Abu Hurayrah narrated to us that the Messenger of Allah said,
«إِنَّ يَمِينَ اللهِ مَلْأَى، لَا
يَغِيضُهَا نَفَقَةٌ، سَحَّاءُ اللَّيْلَ وَالنَّهَارَ، أَرَأَيْتُمْ مَا أَنْفَقَ
مُنْذُ خَلَقَ السَّموَات وَالْأَرْضَ، فَإِنَّهُ لَمْ يَغِضْ مَا فِي يَمِينِهِ قال
: وَعَرْشُهُ عَلَى الْمَاءِ، وَفِي يَدِهِ الْأَخُرى الْقَبْضُ يَرْفَعُ وَيَخْفِض»
(Allah's Right Hand is perfectly full, and no amount of spending can decrease what
He has, even though He spends by night and by day. Do you see how much Allah has
spent since He created the heavens and earth Yet surely it has not decreased what
He has in His Right Hand. His Throne is over the water and in His Other Hand is
the hold by which He raises and lowers.) He also said, قُولُ اللهُ تَعَالى:
«أَنْفِقْ، أُنْفِقْ عَلَيْك»
(Allah said, `Spend and I will spend on you.')'' This Hadith was recorded in the
Two Sahihs.
