Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H.) never accumulated wealth. The action of Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H.) and the associates of Prophet (P.B.U.H.) was that even though they had at their disposal the accumulated wealth of Rome and Iran and an empire of twenty-five thousand square miles, these holy-hearted people fed their dependents by doing labour, and whatever they had left over they gave as alms. There is nothing more treacherous than wealth in this world. Wealth has never been faithful to anyone. Wealth is inconstant in love and friendship. Wealth is such a treacherous reality that whoever worships it, will be ruined by it. But the person who has contempt for wealth and instead of worshipping treads it underfoot will see that wealth bows down before him.
