Muslims demand wealth to use it in their endeavors on the Path of God, to do things that will grant them the approval of God. Otherwise, wealth would become a scourge for the concerned people.

If God had wanted, He could have made the whole world very rich. But then some people would stray away from belief and good morality.

God commanded us to spend money, property and wealth for good causes and not to hoard it.

God wants goods to be constantly used in His path, not be accumulated and hoarded. That causes scarcity and economic crisis.

Many people have an ambition to hoard materials because of their fear of future. This is an attitude God doesn’t like and that doesn’t befit a believer’s trust in God.

Some people entertain mistaken beliefs like Prophet Mohammed (pbuh) was poor and he ate a few handfuls of food in a day. On the contrary, God gave him wealth. Claiming that our Prophet (pbuh) lived a poor life is also slandering the companions, as none of them would let him live in need.

The possessions and blessings one is given in this world will remain behind when death comes. Only God and His heaven will remain eternally.

If the Qur’an had been fully practiced, there would be no poverty. Muslim are obliged to donate what is more than needed for the sake of God.

The Prophet Solomon (pbuh) used both wealth and human beauty to spread religion. These are effective methods in explaining Islam.

If the US spent 5 billion dollars for books explaining that the Qur’an should be obeyed, not superstition, and the invalidity of Darwinism instead of warfare, terror would already be over and no poverty would be left on the face of the earth.

It is God Who enriches people. And it is God Who guides people to the true path.

In the Qur'an, God says " Did He not find you impoverished and enrich you?" to our Prophet. Our Prophet was very wealthy.

Wealth is not directly proportional to the effort shown. Wealth is a blessing of God. God is the One Who gives and creates wealth.

God will grant Islamic moral values to reign over the world and an amazing advancement in arts, wealth and beauty to the Mahdi.

God created the system of the world on the principle of the strong helping the weak, the rich helping the poor. A system of protective guardianship should be taken as basis in defining relations between people. According to the Qur’an, it is a religious obligation for people to protect and watch over one another within the system of protective guardianship. If people abide by this religious obligation and live within the system of protective guardianship, there will be no poverty or desolation.

By the grace of God, poverty and tyranny will come to an end at time of Mahdi.

The money spent on weapons is enough to feed the entire world population many times over. It'll put an end to poverty & starvation.

If you are handing out charity to the poor, why do you care about how much it weighs? You may give or hand out as much as you can afford. You may give as much clothes or food as one can carry. Why are you measuring it in grams or whatnot? It is not befitting of the morals of Islam for one to weigh the goods to be handed out. One should hand them out by handfuls, in abundance.

In the guardianship system that Islam brings, poor and needy will be taken care of, orphans will be cherished. There will be no poverty, only happiness. In this guardianship system, no one will expect ‘thank you’s. Because God is the owner of everything.

Believers ask for worldy possessions from God in order to use them in His way and to serve His religion.

I spend what I earn in the way of God; I never accumulate my earnings.

Muslim spends and distributes wealth in the way of God. Otherwise God could make that money hospital expenditure for that person, may God forbid.

It has been foretold in the accounts that Aleppo will be besieged in the End Times at the time of the Mahdi (pbuh).

A ceasefire should be made for a while in Aleppo so that both food and doctor and medicine could be dispatched to meet the need.

Tens of thousands of Muslims are besieged in Aleppo yet some religious scholars still claim that there is no movement of the antichrist [dajjal] in action and that Muslims are comfortable wherever they go.
