Stop the greed .. !

Goals, aims, and objectives, are fed with unlimited love towards money ..

A main characteristic of materialism ..

More mechanism, more line crossing as if there isn’t a red line, nor a stop sign ..

Not even a diversion, unless the road is under construction ..

Then “please alter to the next route untill we complete this extension” ..

Crawling on spikes of dangers, that is called business gambling ..

Its either the jackpot, and spend half of the prize on medical care after developing some health issues due to stress ..

Or never win and sink in bankruptcy ..

And subsitute the loss with a stroke or a heart attack ..

In both results, there is a loss ..

So stop the greed ..
because you have a soul to feed ..
And a heart that is in need ..
So stop the greed .. !

    I dont really understand why ppl became so greedy? is it bcz they dont feel secure?… —> as a consequence of not Trusting in Allah..?
    Trust in Allah really makes a person more comfortable and feel more secured than anyone else who is not a believer…

    I tried it, and it really works… God is Upon what u think of Him… and really He is…
    El7amduliAllah…

    Allah SWT said:

    ” .. And whosoever fears Allah and keeps his duty to Him, He will make a way for him to get out (from every difficulty). And He will provide him from (sources) he never could imagine. And whosoever puts his trust in Allah, then He will suffice him. Verily, Allah will accomplish his purpose. Indeed Allah has set a measure for all things. ” At-Talaq, 2 & 3

    I think,

    if people started to think only about what they need rather than thinking about what they want, greed well lose its strength.

    And lowering the gaze from life luxuries and embellishments is a good way to protect ourselves from greed.

    But the main reason for every problem is:

    ( Sins )

    may Allah forgive us
    and guide us
    to whats best for us.

    unfortunately إن النفس أمارة بالسوء
    that is why sometimes people, including myself, get dragged towards the wrong path..
    Greed for things that would do us no good..

    May ALlah strengthen our Iman
