Spending Too Much on Construction

Mishkat al-MasabihHadith Number 5183

وَعَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «النَّفَقَةُ كُلُّهَا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ إِلَّا الْبِنَاءَ فَلَا خَيْرَ فِيهِ» . رَوَاهُ التِّرْمِذِيُّ وَقَالَ: هَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ

Anas Narrated from:

Allah's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "All spending (on necessities of life) is in Allah's path, but not what is spend (beyond necessity) on construction, for, there is no piety (and reward) in it." [4]
