Dear Islamic brothers! Here are different excerpts from a question and answer about different cases of accumulating or not accumulating wealth. These will greatly enhance your knowledge, اِنْ شَــآءَالـلّٰـه عَزَّوَجَلَّ. A’la Hadrat رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه was asked the following question: A person who has to support his family fulfils their needs in a moderate way with his monthly or annual income, and spends the rest in the divine path without saving any money for their future needs. On the other hand, there is another person who spends a part of his income on the fulfilment of his family needs, spends the other part in charity and saves another part for the future needs of his family. Which one of the two is better?
Answer: If there are good intentions, both of the above cases are better. Either of the two may be preferable or essential, depending upon one’s condition. The Ahadees reported on this issue are different and the practices of the pious predecessors are also different.
﴿اَقُوۡلُ وَبِاللّٰهِ التَّوۡفِيۡق﴾ With divinely-bestowed ability, I am describing the concise and precise ruling on this matter: In fact, there are two sorts of people. (a) Munfarid: A single person living alone and (b) Mu’eel: Paterfamilias, i.e. one who has a family to support. Although the question refers to a paterfamilias, every paterfamilias is deemed to be ‘single’ in individual terms and has to abide by the same rulings in terms of his individual life
