Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith
Hadith 7.528 Narrated by
Jabir
Allah's Apostle said, "Extinguish the lamps when you go to bed; close your doors; tie the mouths of your water skins, and
cover the food and drinks." I think he added, "...even with a stick you place across the container."
Sahih Muslim Hadith
Hadith 5100 Narrated by
AbuHurayrah
Someone came to Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) and said: I am hard pressed by hunger. He sent (a message) to
one of his wives (to procure food for him), but she said: By Him Who has sent you with Truth, I have nothing (to serve him)
but water. He (the Holy Prophet) then sent the (same) message to another, and she gave the same reply, until all of them
gave the same reply: By Him Who has sent thee with the Truth, I have nothing but water. Thereupon he (the Holy Prophet)
said: Allah will show mercy to him who entertains this guest tonight. A person from the Ansar stood up and said: Messenger
of Allah, I (am ready to entertain). He took him to his house and said to his wife: Do you have anything (to serve the guest)?
She said: No, barely enough for our children. He said: Distract their attention with something, and when the guest enters
extinguish the lamp and give him the impression that we are eating. So they sat down, and the guest had his meal. When it
was morning he went to Allah's Apostle (peace be upon him) who said: Allah was well pleased with what you both did for your
guest this night.
EXTRAVAGANT:
25:67 - Those who when they spend are not extravagant and not niggardly but hold a just
(balance) between those (extremes); 3127
3127 In ordinary spending this is a wise rule. But even in charity, in which we give of our best, it is not expected that we
should be extravagant, i.e., that we should either do it for show, to impress other people, or do it thoughtlessly, which
would be the case if we "rob Peter to pay Paul". We should certainly not be niggardly, but we should remember
everyone's rights, including our own, and strike a perfectly just balance between them. (25.67)
72:4 - There were some foolish ones among us who used to utter extravagant lies against Allah;
72:5 - But we do think that no man or spirit should say aught that is untrue against Allah. 5731
5731 No one ought to entertain false notions about Allah. For by joining false gods in our ideas of worship, we degrade our
conception of ourselves and the duty we owe to our Creator and Cherisher, to Whom we have to give a final account
of life and conduct. If we worship idols or heavenly bodies, or human beings, or any creatures, or false fancies born of
self or foolish abstractions, or the lusts and desires of our own hearts, we are not only doing violence to Truth, but we
are causing discord in the harmony of the world. (72.5)

Extravagance in Shrouding is Disliked
A shroud should be nice, but not so extravagantly expensive that it would unduly burden a person.
Ash-Shafi'i remarked, "Ali said: 'Do not be extravagant in shrouding me. I have heard Allah's Messenger, peace be upon him,
say: "Do not be extravagant in preparing your shroud for it will soon be taken away."…

Using Silk Cloth in the Shroud
any scholars, however, disapprove of a woman using a silk shroud, because this is extravagant and a waste of money and
therefore forbidden.
EXULT:
3:188 - Think not that those who exult in what they have brought about and love to be praised for
what they have not done think not that they can escape the penalty. For them is a penalty
grievous indeed. 496
