Worship Allah & Allah alone & not to worship anything along with Him Pray, Speak the truth, Be chaste & Keep good relations with our Kith and kin Whoever abstains from asking others for some financial help, Allah will give him & save him from asking others, Allah will make him self-sufficient."
Narrated Abu Huraira: The Prophet (s.a.w) said, "No doubt, it is better for a person to take a rope and proceed in the morning to the mountains and cut the wood and then sell it, and eat from this income and give alms from it than to ask others for something." Qiyamah
"On the Day of Qiyaamah no one will be able to move (on the occasion of Hisaab Reckoning) until a reckoning of 5 things has not been taken..." Tirmidhi. One will be asked: "How did you earn your living and how did you spend your income?" Income and Expenditure
One should not become so much involved in Earning an income that there remains no time to sit in the company of some saintly person (Auliya), is an important requirement for the spiritual progress of a Muslim. WAQF - ENDOWMENTS There is nothing wrong with earning and accumulating wealth provided that one abstains from extravagance, haram and all ways and means unlawful in Islam. Wealth can and should be used constructively for one's own benefit as well as for the benefit of others and for rendering service to Deen. There are a variety of Deeni activities which require wealth. Spend for the Cause of Allah Hadhrat Abdullah (R.A) narrates that Rasulullah (s.a.w) said: "The seeking of a halal earning is the (next) Fardh (duty) after the Fardh (Salat)."Baihaqqi Hadhrat Abu Khimari (R.A) narrates a lengthy Hadith in which Rasulullah (s.a.w) said: "The world is for 4 (types) of persons. (One among the 4) is a man whom Allah granted wealth as well as understanding of the Deen. He fears his Rabb and is kind ( renders service) to his relatives. In regard to the wealth he follows the commands of Allah and discharges rights. The man is the noblest.Tirmidhi Hadhrat Ibn Umar (RA) narrates that Rasulullah (SAW) said: "Allah Ta'ala loves a Mu'min who engages himself in lawful means of earning a living." Tibrani, Baihaqqi. It is a person's own interests that he saves up some money to ward off worry and despondency. It is a fact that most people are not able to undergo hardship. When in need of money, they resort to practices which are unlawful and adopt haraam measures to obtain money in order to satisfy their needs. It is therefore necessary to abstain from waste and at the same time save up money. According to a Hadith, even Rasulullah (SAW) would give his wives expenses at one time for the whole year. Rasulullah (SAW) advised the Ashab to retain some wealth as this is better for peace of mind. This was specifically stated by Rasulullah (SAW) to Hadhrat Ka'ab Ibn Malik (RA) who head expressed his desire to contribute all his wealth in the path of Allah. |
Hadhrat Ibn Mastood narrates that Rasulullah (SAW) said: "I detest a man who is useless. He is neither engaged in any worldly activity not any Aakhirah activity." Ahmad, Baihaqi |

Narrated 'Aisha(R.A): The Prophet used to say, "O Allah! I seek refuge with You from laziness, from geriatric old age, from being in debt & from committing sins. O Allah! I seek refuge with You from the punishment of the Fire, the afflictions of the grave, the punishment in the grave & the evil of the affliction of poverty and from the evil of the affliction caused by Al-Masih Ad-Dajjal.

Abdullah Ibn Mas'ud said: "The Prophet said, 'Islam began as something strange. And it will revert to being strange as it was in the beginning, so good tidings for the strangers.' Someone asked, 'Who are the strangers?' He said, 'The ones who break away from their people (literally, 'tribes') for the sake of Islam.'" |
Hazrat Sufyaan Thauri (RA) also said that whoever is in possession of wealth should increase it and not squander it because in this age the first thing which win suffer in the event of poverty and want is one's Deen. Hazrat Abu Saeed (RA) narrates that Rasulullah (SAW) said: 'An honest and upright trader will be with the Ambiya, Siddiqeen and Shuhadaa (on the Day of Qiyaamah)." Tirmidhi Hazrat Miqdam Bin Ma'di Karuba (RA) narrates that Rasulullah (s.a.w) said: "The noblest food ate by one is that from his (lawful) labour. Hazrat Dawood (A.S) ate from the labour of his hands." Bukhari
Islam teaches the nobility and dignity of work and labour. The Ahadith explain much significance of labour. Hazrat Dawood (A.S) earned his living by making armour. However, this significance applies to only such occupations which are in accordance with the teachings of Shari'ah. Haraam forms of labour and occupations, etc. are haraam forms of earning. The proceeds from unlawful occupations are likewise unlawful.
The episode of Hazrat Musa (A.S) being a shepherd is narrated in the Al-Quran as well. This brings out the significance of manual labour. Hazrat Thaabit Ibn DhuHaak (RA) narrates that Rasulullah (SAW) permitted hiring out of land. Income derived from land and property hiring is also a lawful occupation in Islam. Among the noble ways of earning is farming. Much significance of farming has been mentioned in Ahadith. Hadhrat Anas (RA) narrates that Rasullulah (SAW) said that if any man, animal or bird eats from any tree or farm planted by a Muslim, its owner obtains the thawaab of Sadaqah thereby. Hadhrat Anas (RA) narrating a lengthy Hadith says that a man from among the Ansaar came to Rasulullah (SAW) and requested something. Rasulullah (SAW) sent someone to bring a mug and a mat from one house. These items Rasullulah (SAW) auctioned among the Ashab. With the money obtained for the items Rasulullah (SAW) bought some food and an axe. Giving these to the Ansaari, Rasulullah (SAW) said: "Go (to the forest), cut wood and see it. This is better for you than begging which will be a blot of disgrace on your face (on the Day of Qiyaamah)." Abu Dawood, Ibn Maajah
| It was reported from 'Abdullah Ibn 'Amr that the Prophet (s.a.w) said, "The Hour will not come until Allah takes away the best people on earth; only the worst people will be left; they will not know any good or forbid any evil. The Hour will not come until no-one on earth says 'La ilaha illa Allah'."(Ahmad) |
