RICH VS POOR IN OUR ISLAM

RICH VS POOR IN ISLAM

Have you caught wind of this prophetic hadith:

"The unfortunate Muslims will enter Heaven before the rich by half of a day, the length of which is 500 years."


  • Initially, this might delude individuals to believe being poor is better compared to being well off in Islam. Some even put off being affluent as to them, it won't help them in the Great beyond.

From what I have seen, this attitude of "should be poor" has been embraced by certain Muslims.

  • Accordingly, comes my definitive inquiry, is being unfortunate better than being rich?

Importance of the hadith and its same

  • "The unfortunate Muslims will enter Heaven before the rich by half of a day, the length of which is 500 years."

  • "I remained at the door of Heaven and saw that most individuals who had entered it were needy individuals, while the rich were taboo (to enter alongside poor people, since they were sitting tight for the retribution of their records); plus, individuals of the Fire had been requested to be headed to Damnation."
  •  From these two prophetic hadiths, we found out about the temperance of being poor.

  • In a period where the rich were unrivaled and poor people were being persecuted, the Prophet (Harmony Arrive) carried uplifting news to the unfortunate that in spite of the relative multitude of difficulties that they had been looking in this world, they will be compensated for their understanding and diligence and will enter heaven.

Nonetheless, it implies that being poor is worse than being rich. These two hadiths just act as an advance notice to the rich individuals with the goal that they will use their abundance accurately and not spend them regarding how they need. The proof to this is another prophetic hadith illuminating us of the temperance of the rich.

  • Ethics of rich individuals in Hadith;

Prophet Muhammad Harmony Arrive said: "The high ground is superior to the lower one (the upper being the one which presents and the lower one which asks)."

In another hadith, when the poor among the unfortunate Muslims who relocated from Makkah to Madinah came to the Prophet (PBUH) and said,

"O Courier of Allah! The holders of extraordinary abundance have gotten the most noteworthy positions in Heaven and the enduring joy." (As a result of their demonstrations of love, good cause and charity giving)


Prophet Harmony Arrive said: "This is Allah's effortlessness which He provides for whom He wishes."

From these two hadiths, it obviously shows that Prophet Muhammad praised the affluent individuals of their foundation and aiding individuals.

A portion of the friends are likewise well off and rich like Khadijah Binta Khuwailid, Abu Bakar As-Siddiq, Umar Receptacle Al-Khattab, Uthman Container Affan.

Quite possibly of the richest finance manager in his period, Abdul Rahman Canister Auf, is really being given the uplifting news of being one of the ten associates who are affirmed to enter heaven.

So presently, initially, there is by all accounts a logical inconsistency between being rich and being poor in Islam. Or on the other hand is it?

  • Settling the logical inconsistency

Allah and the Prophet complimented poor people and compensated them heaven for their persistent effort, diligence, and persistence in confronting the troublesome battles on the planet.

Nonetheless, know that on the off chance that the poor are not patient and persisting, they might capitulate themselves into skepticism. As the Prophet had said: "Neediness nearly prompts incredulity."

Allah and the Prophet complimented the rich for their foundation, alleviating others' obligations [with their own wealth], giving during misfortunes, thus putting them in the most noteworthy positions in Heaven and the enduring euphoria.

Be that as it may, on the off chance that they utilized their abundance flippantly, Allah will certainly pass judgment on them completely. For this situation, definitely being poor is better as the Prophet said: 'Neediness is superior to riches, save the people who alleviate others' obligations [with their own wealth] and give during misfortunes.'

End

At this point, you could have understood that there is no distinct response to a definitive inquiry "Is being unfortunate better than being rich?".

It relies upon the circumstance and conditions.

  • My recommendation to all will be to endeavor and make a solid effort to be well off and rich as this will clearly carry advantages to yourself and furthermore others.
  • You being rich won't create problems to others monetarily. All things being equal, you will have more chances to help other people out of luck.


The Prophet Harmony Arrive said:


"The most cherished individuals to Allah are the individuals who are generally useful to individuals.

The most darling deed to Allah is to fulfill a Muslim, or to eliminate one of his inconveniences, or to excuse his obligation, or to take care of his craving. "

On the off chance that you are not rich and well off, kindly cheer and realize that you will be compensated for your understanding and constancy.

Rich or Poor, let every one of us be a dependable individual whom Allah and Prophet Muhammad is pleased with.
