Commentary
Begging eliminates a person's honor and self-esteem and his face gets deprived of charm, delight and gleam due to the curse of disgrace and humiliation. Some narrations show that a habitual beggar will appear with no flesh on his face on the Last Day.
In the Name of Allāh,the Merciful, the Beneficent.
