A Believer’s Wealth
~ 127 ~
wealth to be that which will be of use to them there.
In order to obtain such wealth, one should always
be thankful to God for His blessings. One’s
attachment to God should be such that He is always
in one’s mind and heart. If one has set one’s sights
on life everlasting, one will prefer one’s companion
in life to be similarly disposed. There is no greater
wealth in life than a partner who, instead of
enticing one towards ephemeral, mundane
pleasures, assists one on the path of eternity.
People see wealth in gold and silver, but a believer’s
wealth is God. That which brings him nearer to his
Lord and makes him eligible for God’s blessings in
the life to come, is to him of supreme importance.
