In Ayat 268 0f Surat Baqra of the Holy Qur'an, Allah, Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala says:--
"SHAYTAN (SATAN) THREATENS YOU WITH POVERTY AND ORDERS YOU TO COMMIT
FAHSHA' (evil deeds, illegal sexual intercourse, sins); WHEREAS ALLAH PROMISES
YOU FORGIVENESS FROM HIMSELF AND BOUNTY, AND ALLAH IS ALL-SUFFICIENT FOR
HIS CREATURES NEEDS, ALL-KNOWING".
Satan uses the fear tactic of becoming poor on the human being. Thus he pushes him to refrain from paying Zakkat/Charity for the pleasure of Allah. Satan whispers to man that spending will only push him towards poverty and need.
Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He, however, gives man the good news of rewarding the generous one saying: "Whereas Allah promises you Forgiveness from Himself and Bounty...." This Verse shows that His Bounty, Azza Wa-Jall, is infinite, His sustenance is abundant and that His Treasures are full and will never be depleted.
