Narrated by the humble servant of One Islam, whose name means al-Haqq from Allah’s Apostle in vision, saying: “All that a pure believer needs is within the True and Holy Qur’an. This is the first. Honor the sacred deed (constitution) of One Islam second. Respect these authentic Hadith of Allah's Apostle and no other is the third. Finally, honor all other sacred scripture that respects Allah as one who loves all life, peace and wisdom. Never raise false sayings and false scripture above these four things.” |

The Prophet said, “Riches are not from an abundance of wordly goods but from a contented mind.” |
|
| 3. |
The Prophet said, “It is difficult for a man laden with riches to climb the steep path which leads to bliss.” |
|

The Prophet said, “Whoever desires in modesty the world and its riches, in a lawful manner, in order to withhold himself from begging, and for a livelihood for his family, and for being kind to his neighbor, will come to God with his face bright as the full moon.” |
|
| 5. |
The Prophet said, “A wealthy man’s first obligation given his wealth is not to his family but to his community that it may prosper and then to the region that it may prosper. A wealthy man who does not attend to his own community is a disgrace in the eyes of Allah.” |
