Islam is a religion full of love and affection, it can be seen how Islam really respects things that are considered important. One of them is a prohibition against wasteful things or excessive behavior.

This excessive attitude in Islam is called Redundancy, which is explained in the Al-Qur’an, Surah Al-Isra verse 27 which reads;
Wasteful people are Satan’s brothers, and Satan is ungrateful to his Lord.
Indeed, wasteful people are Satan’s brothers and Satan is very disobedient to his Lord. (QS. Al-Isra’: 27)
In this verse we are actually reminded not to do excessive things in spending, especially in terms of wealth. Sheikh Nawawi Al-Bantani in the book Tafsir Marah Labib explains that waste means using wealth for the wrong purpose, such as immoral acts, arrogance, or to seek popularity and praise from other people.
Thus, this teaching reminds us to avoid waste, use our wealth responsibly, and always be grateful for all the good fortune that God provides. Listen to Sheikh Nawawi’s explanation below:
And do not be excessive (26), namely wasting money on sin, pride and a good name. In fact, wasteful people are Satan’s brothers, namely his followers who spend their money in sin, and Satan is disobedient to his Lord (27) because he uses his body to sin and spread corruption on the face of the earth, as does everyone who is given wealth and honor to him by Allah Almighty, but he spends it without the pleasure of Allah Almighty. He denied the grace of Almighty God, so that wasteful people agreed with Satan in that capacity.
“Do not be wasteful in spending (verse 26). The meaning of waste is using wealth for immoral acts, arrogance, and to seek popularity or praise. In fact, people who are wasteful are Satan’s brothers (verse 27), that is, they follow Satan in spending wealth for immorality. And Satan is a creature who is very disobedient to his Lord, because he uses his body to commit immoral acts and cause damage on earth.

Likewise, someone who is given sustenance in the form of wealth or position by Allah, but uses it for something that is not approved by Allah, then he is considered ungrateful towards Allah’s blessings. Therefore, wasteful people are considered to have the same characteristics as Satan.” (Shaykh Nawawi Al-Bantani, Marah Labib, [Beirut: Darul Kutub Ilmiyah, 1417 H] Volume I, p. 523)
Abdullah bin Mas’ud radhiyallahu’anhu explains, waste is, Unfair spending
“Using property to someone who has no rights.” Mujahideen God bless explain,
If someone spends all his money on the right things, he is not wasteful, but if he spends some of his money on the wrong things, then he is wasteful.
“If someone spends all his wealth for good, then it is not a waste. If someone spends only the amount of mud (one covers an adult’s hand) of his wealth for bad or what is not his right, then it is a waste.”
On the one hand, Ibnu Jarir At-Thobari stated; “People who defend their wealth for immorality, not for things that are worth obeying Allah, that is the behavior of Satan’s guardian.”
Wasteful behavior also has a real impact on our lives, including; First, it can lead to disobedience, namely not being grateful for the gifts that Allah SWT has given. Second, it results in wasteful living because you always overdo it.
At other times, there are also two things that can prevent us from doing wasteful or excessive actions and the punishment of Allah SWT, among others;

First, You must always be grateful for the food that is available. Food is a gift from God that we need to be grateful for. So by being grateful, Allah will add blessings. Meanwhile, if it is the opposite (disbelief), then indeed Allah’s punishment will be truly painful.
Second, provide enough food as needed, don’t take too much food. Therefore we cannot avoid leaving food out which results in wasting food.
PakarPBN
A Private Blog Network (PBN) is a collection of websites that are controlled by a single individual or organization and used primarily to build backlinks to a “money site” in order to influence its ranking in search engines such as Google. The core idea behind a PBN is based on the importance of backlinks in Google’s ranking algorithm. Since Google views backlinks as signals of authority and trust, some website owners attempt to artificially create these signals through a controlled network of sites.
In a typical PBN setup, the owner acquires expired or aged domains that already have existing authority, backlinks, and history. These domains are rebuilt with new content and hosted separately, often using different IP addresses, hosting providers, themes, and ownership details to make them appear unrelated. Within the content published on these sites, links are strategically placed that point to the main website the owner wants to rank higher. By doing this, the owner attempts to pass link equity (also known as “link juice”) from the PBN sites to the target website.
The purpose of a PBN is to give the impression that the target website is naturally earning links from multiple independent sources. If done effectively, this can temporarily improve keyword rankings, increase organic visibility, and drive more traffic from search results.
