Generally, savings are not encouraged. It is the cause of a lot of spiritual as well as material sicknesses and in the next life may be a source of regret. The concept of 'saving for a rainy day' does little to help a persons Emaan. If you look at the life of our Beloved SAW and the lives of his Sahabah RA you will find more beneficial activities for your your money. That is not to say that you should give your last penny in charity as this could also deplete Emaan but it is important to understand the Islamic purpose of wealth.
