The emphasis falls on prevention, suggesting that ordinary people can be drawn toward unlawful gain simply because an opening was left for them.

Suited to remarks about money, goods, or belongings left unattended by their owner, or to chiding someone whose carelessness made a loss likely. It can also urge securing possessions. The religious word for 'forbidden' here points to theft or illicit gain, giving the advice a moral edge.
