Did No One See Him?
أَيَحۡسَبُ أَن لَّمۡ يَرَهُۥٓ أَحَدٌ ٧
Thinketh he that none beholdeth him.
Translation: Marmaduke Pickthall
Meaning
Does he think no one saw him?
Insight
According to Elmalılı, this is a warning: does he think no one saw him as he spent? Allah sees what he spent, how and why.
Reflect
Consider that Allah sees how you spend today.
