Allah The Exalted says: And whoever (amongst guardians) is rich, he should take
no wages,
Allah The Exalted says:(Charity is) for Fuqara (the poor), who in Allah's Cause
are restricted (from travel), and cannot move about in the land (for trade or
work)
Allah The Exalted says:And those who, when they spend, are neither extravagant
nor niggardly, but hold a medium (way) between those (extremes).
Abu Huraira (RA) rrated : The Prophet (SAW) said, "Riches does not mean having
great amounts(of things), but riches is self contentment."
Abu Hurairah (RA) narrated that The Prophet (SAW) said AllahThe Exalted said
."O son of Adam if you set aside some time for My worship I will fill your
heart with contentment and remove your poverty and if you spend no time in My
worship I will keep your hands busy in work and will not remove your poverty."
Abdullah bin Amr Al Aas (RA) narrated: Allah's Messenger (SAW) said, "He has
succeeded who accepted Islam, and was given sufficient provision and was
content upon what Allah gave him."
Salama bin Ubaidullah bin Mihsan Al-Ansari narrated from his father that the
messenger of Allah (SAW) said," Whoever amongst you begins the day with his
body in a state of wellbeing, and secure in his home and near him is provision
of a day so it is as if the world and all therein were bestowed upon him."
Abu Hurairah (RA) narrated: I heard the Messenger of Allah (SAW) say,"Look to
the one who is lower than you (by worldly means) and do not look towards the
one who is above you (by worldly means) ,in this way it is more likely that you
will not belittle the blessings of Allah upon you."
Abu Huraira (RA) narrated : Allah's Messenger (SAW) said, "if anyone of you
looked at a person who was made superior to him in wealth and appearance, then
he should also look at the one who is inferior to him, (rather) than to whom
has been made superior to him."
Saeed Al Khudri (RA) narrated that some people from the Ansaar asked the
Messenger of Allah (SAW) (for something) and he gave them. They asked him again
and he gave them till what was in his possession was used up, he said,"
Whatever good I have I will not withhold it from you. He who refrains from
asking, Allah safeguards him against want, and he who seeks suffiency Allah
will enrich him, and he who shows endurance, Allah would grant him power to
endure, and none is blessed with an endowment better and greater than
endurance".
