Love YOUR Wealth !!

[Quran and Hadith]

Ibn Mas'ud (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of Allah (PBUH) asked, "Who of you loves the wealth of his heir more than his own wealth?" The Companions said: "O Messenger of Allah! There is none of us but loves his own wealth more." He (PBUH) said, "His wealth is that which he has sent forward, but that which he retains belongs to his heir." [Al-Bukhari].

Commentary:

This Hadith highlights in a wise fashion the significance and perception of spending in the way of Allah. The real wealth of man is that which he spends in His way. Only this wealth will stand with him on the Day of Resurrection. Otherwise, what apart from it, will be personally used up by him in the worldly life, and what he leaves behind will fall to his heirs. It implies that if Allah has bestowed worldly riches upon a man, he should spend them to the maximum in the way to Allah.
