"يا أبا ذر! أترى أن كثرة المال هوالغنى؟ إنما الغنى غنى القلب والفقر فقر القلب من كان الغنى في قلبه فلا يضره ما لقي من الدنيا ومن كان الفقر في قلبه فلا يغنيه ما أكثر له في الدنيا وإنما يضر نفسه شحها"
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
"O Abu Dharr! Do you think that abundance of wealth is richness (self-sufficiency)? True richness is only the richness of the heart, and true poverty is the poverty of the heart. Whoever has richness in his heart, nothing of this world harms him; and whoever has poverty in his heart, even the abundance of this world does not make him rich; and nothing harms him except the greed of his own self."
