Sahih Muslim - Thanking and being grateful to Allah for the wealth bestowed upon us
The world is a prison-house for a believer and Paradise for a
non-believer.
Sahih Muslim Book 42, Number 7058:Abu Huraira reported
Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: The world is a prison-house
for a believer and Paradise for a non-believer.
The world is like a dead lamb in the
eyes of Allah
Sahih Muslim Book 42, Number 7059:Jabir
b. Abdullah reported that Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) happened to
walk through the bazar coming from the side of 'Aliya and the people were on
both his sides.There he found a dead lamb with very short ears. He took hold of
his ear and said: Who amongst you would like to have this for a dirham? They
said: We do not like to have it even for less than that as it is of no use to
us. He said: Do you wish to have it (free of any cost)?They said: By Allah, even
if it were alive (we would not have liked to possess that), for there is detect
in it as its ear is very short; now it is dead also.Thereupon Allah's Messenger
(may peace be upon him) said: By Allah, this world is more insignificant in the
eye of Allah as it (this dead lamb) is in your eye.
Wealth Spent on oneself , one's family
and on others(the poor and needy) is money saved for the Hereafter ,
Wealth spent is wealth saved
Sahih Muslim Book 42, Number 7061:Mutarrif reported
on the authority of his father: I came to Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon
him) as he was reciting: "Abundance diverts you" .He said: The son of Adam
claims: My wealth, my wealth.And he (the Holy Prophet) said: O son of Adam.
is there anything as your belonging except that which you consumed, which
you utilised, or which you wore and then it was worn out or you gave as
charity and sent it forward?
Sahih Muslim Book 42, Number 7063:Abu
Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: A servant
says, My wealth. my wealth, but out of his wealth three things are only his:
whatever he eats and makes use of or by means of which he dresses himself and it
wears out or he gives as charity, and this is what he stored for himself (as a
reward for the Hereafter), and what is beyond this (it is of no use to you)
because you are to depart and leave it for other people.This hadith has been
narrated on the authority of al-'Ala' b. 'Abd al-Rahman with the same chain of
transmitters.
Spend and Allah will
spend on youSahih Muslim Book 5,
Number 2178:Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger
(may peace be upon him) as saying that Allah, the Most Blessed and High,
said: O son of Adam, spend. I will spend on you. The right hand of Allah is
full and overflowing and in nothing would diminish it, by overspending day
and night.
Sahih Muslim Book 5, Number 2180:Thauban reported Allah's
Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: The most excellent dinar is one
that a person spends on his family, and the dinar which he spends on his animal
in Allah's path, and the dinar he spends on his companions in Allah's path. Abu
Qilaba (one of the narrators) said: He (the narrator) started with family, and
then Abu Qilaba said: Who is the person with greater reward than a person who
spends on young members of his family (and thus) preserves (saves them from
want) (and by virtue of which) Allah brings profit for them and makes them rich.
Importance of being modest and having Humility and doing Justice to others inspite of being wealthySahih Muslim Book

reported that Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) said: How would you be,
0 people. when Persia and Rome would be conquered for you?' Abd at-Rahman b Auf
said: We would say as Allah has commanded us and we would express our gratitude
to Allah Thereupon Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) said: Nothing else
besides it? You would (in fact) vie with one another, then you would feel
jealous. then your relations would be estranged and then you will bear enmity
against one another. or something to the same effect.Then you would go to the
poor emigrants and would make some the masters of the others.
