Haram Money & business

Is wasting money and food haram?

Short answer

Yes. Allah forbids extravagance (7:31), and calls wasteful people the brothers of the devils (17:26-27). Spending is encouraged within need and means, and wasting food or money on what has no benefit is sinful.

Evidence

Quran

۞ يَٰبَنِىٓ ءَادَمَ خُذُوا۟ زِينَتَكُمْ عِندَ كُلِّ مَسْجِدٍۢ وَكُلُوا۟ وَٱشْرَبُوا۟ وَلَا تُسْرِفُوٓا۟ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ لَا يُحِبُّ ٱلْمُسْرِفِينَ ﴿٣١﴾

O enfants d'Adam, dans chaque lieu de Salât portez votre parure (vos habits). Et mangez et buvez; et ne commettez pas d'excès, car Il [Allah] n'aime pas ceux qui commettent des excès.

وَءَاتِ ذَا ٱلْقُرْبَىٰ حَقَّهُۥ وَٱلْمِسْكِينَ وَٱبْنَ ٱلسَّبِيلِ وَلَا تُبَذِّرْ تَبْذِيرًا ﴿٢٦﴾

«Et donne au proche parent ce qui lui est dû ainsi qu'au pauvre et au voyageur (en détresse). Et ne gaspille pas indûment,

إِنَّ ٱلْمُبَذِّرِينَ كَانُوٓا۟ إِخْوَٰنَ ٱلشَّيَٰطِينِ ۖ وَكَانَ ٱلشَّيْطَٰنُ لِرَبِّهِۦ كَفُورًۭا ﴿٢٧﴾

car les gaspilleurs sont les frères des diables; et le Diable est très ingrat envers son Seigneur.

This is general information, not a fatwa. For your own situation, ask a qualified scholar.
