I read the answer to the lamborghini question and was wondering: then what exactly is israf? (Not being rude here, the explanations that I‘ve read would probably count a lamborghini to the israf category hence I‘m asking you).
The norm defines israf.
Is spending $600 on a jacket israf? In most countries of the world yes, in some countries that is the average price of a jacket.
So, we can't tie the definition to a specific product or service. Your car might be as fancy as a Lamborghini to other Muslims. There might be Muslims somewhere in the world living where it's normal to get a lambo, and therefore it would be okay there and then. (If you do find out, please let me know, asking for a friend 😂)
