will die. And if there is more than necessary, then the seed will rot. Find the golden ratio between drought and devastation, and this will make a man out of you.

If you do not satisfy your desires by saving, contentedness and spirituality, then you will not be able to satisfy them through material things. Greed will debase man, and it will make enemies out of his relatives.

Bodily appetites are a problem; your modest self is the solution. Your modest self can teach you how to live happily on limited resources.

Wealth is a flood. You cannot a resist a flood. It is preferable to step aside and avoid the flood. What can save you from that flood is your modest and contented heart.

Bodily appetites cause greediness.

Allah Almighty created everything in such a way that creatures can decompose in themselves. Your bodily appetites might ruin you from within at an unexpected moment.

Be concerned about your head, and not about your stomach.

The best thing in the world is holy light. The best kind of wealth is spiritual wealth.

If you have enough for your subsistence, then don’t try to be rich.

Everything is transitory. So is wealth. Allah is the possessor of time. All wealth belongs to Allah and he gives extra wealth to the wealthy. He bestows wealth in your account. It is deposited in the names of people, So that wealth is in fact not yours but granted or deposited to your account. Wealth cannot last forever. For it cannot stay at a certain place. It transfers from one name to another by the order of Allah.
