Note 1

Indeed, some men misuse Allah’s wealth unlawfully, and for them is the Fire on the Day of Resurrection

(1) The statement: “Indeed, some men misuse Allah’s wealth unlawfully, and for them is the Fire on the Day of Resurrection”: The term “misuse” here refers to disposing of the public treasury, spoils, and the like without right, and taking from them beyond what is legislated. This encompasses the actions of governors and subjects who take more than their allotted sustenance and share. As stated in Al-Lam‘at.

قوله

(١)قوله: إن رجالًا يتخوضون في مال الله بغير حق فلهم النار يوم القيامة: المراد بالخوض هنا التصرف في بيت المالوالغنائم ونحوها بغير حق، والأخذ منها زيادة على ما شرع. وهذا يعم تصرف الوُلاة والرعايا وأخذهم زيادة علىرزقهم ونصيبهم. كذا في (اللمعات).
