Khazanay Kay Ambaar | Hoards of Treasures
Hazards of wealth
Shaykh-ul-Islam, Shahabuddin Imam Ahmad Bin Hajar Makki Shaafi’i عَـلَيْهِ رَحْـمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ الۡـقَـوِی has listed the hazards of wealth from page 565 to 567 in the first volume of the 853-page book ‘Jahannam mayn Lay Jaanay Walay A’maal’ [i.e., Deeds leading to Hell] published by Maktaba-tul-Madinah, the publishing department of Dawat-e-Islami]. Let me quote some of them:
Religious hazards
The abundance of wealth encourages a person to commit sins. At first, it leads him to enjoying permissible pleasures making him so addicted to them that it becomes extremely difficult for him to get rid of them. If unable to obtain them through lawful means, he sometimes even starts earning Haraam (unlawfully). Furthermore, a wealthy person usually tends to establish and maintain more relations with people. He meets others with hypocrisy and pleases or displeases them at the cost of disobedience to Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ. As a result, he commits many major sins such as enmity, grudge, jealousy, ostentation, arrogance, lying, backbiting, tale-telling.
Worldly hazards
The worldly hazards confronted by wealthy people include fear, grief, depression, troubles, the temptation to earn more and more money to maintain one’s financial status, concern about the protection of wealth etc.
