About wealth, the Prophet (S.A.W.S.) said: "Every nation has its fitnah (trial or temptation), and the fitnah of my ummah is wealth." (Reported by al-Tirmidhi, 2336; Saheeh al-Jaami?, 2148). The Prophet (S.A.W.S.) thus urged Muslims to be content with just what is sufficient. He (S.A.W.S.) warned those who want to accumulate wealth, with no intention of giving in charity: "Woe to those who want to accumulate wealth, except for the one who says with his wealth, ?Here! Here! Here!?" (i.e., giving it away) "to one on his right, one on his left, one in front of him and one behind him," (reported by Ibn Maajah, no. 4129; Saheeh al-Jaami?, 7137) The Prophet (S.A.W.S.) also said: "All that is sufficient for any one of you in this world is the supply of the traveller." (Reported by al-Tabaraani in al-Kabeer, 4/78; Saheeh al-Jaami?, 2384) Islamic-Hub
