Explanation & Benefits
Hafiz Muhammad Ameen
Worldly Wealth: In the hadith, the word [عقال] has been used, which means the rope with which a camel’s knee is tied so that it does not run away. Obviously, that rope itself is not anyone’s objective. But in reality, worldly wealth and possessions, no matter how attractive they may seem, are as insignificant as that rope and are destined to perish. To express the insignificance of worldly wealth, it has been described as a rope; therefore, in the translation, the actual intent has been stated.
