A last word..
We should be on our guard against the devil’s at tempt to intimidate us with regard to sustenance. Allah Almighty says:
{Satan threatens you with poverty and orders you to immorality, while Allah promises you forgiveness from Him and bounty. And Allah is All-Encompassing, All-Knowing.}
[Surat al-Baqarah: 268]
One of the righteous predecessors said: “People have believed Satan and have belied Allah with regard to sustenance!”
People do not like poverty,
though poverty is better than opulence that makes them transgress.
Self-contentment is sufficient for a person;
yet if he does not have that, nothing will ever be sufficient for him.
O Allah, provide us with guidance, piety, chastity, and self-sufficiency; You are the Best of providers.
