Translation: Don’t run after worldly wealth. It is of no use in the Hereafter. It is actually a nuisance that will not benefit you in the court of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ. (Wasail-e-Bakhshish, pp. 375)
صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد
Dear Islamic brothers! You have just listened to a parable of a person who was infatuated with wealth. He remained occupied throughout his life with merrymaking and fulfilling his carnal desires. Instead of benefiting from the divinely-given respite, he became even more and more heedless. Intoxicated by the love for wealth, he always avoided helping the destitute and indulged in merriment. Eventually, the angel of death came, bringing him to his senses. Although the intoxication of wealth died down, nothing could have been done at that time. This parable also contains a great lesson of admonition for those who are greedy for wealth and oblivious of ruining their worldly life as well as afterlife.
Ghup andhayri qabr mayn jab jaye ga
Bay-amal! Bay-intiha ghabraye ga
Kaam maal-o-zer wahan na aaye ga
Ghaafil insan yaad rakh pachtaye ga
Jab tayray sathi tujhay chor aayain gey
Qabr mayn keeray tujhay kha jayain gey
