god articles - "Can Not Exist Without Money"

By: Bawa Muhaiyaddeen

566.

A man asked the sheikh, “O sheikh, one cannot exist in the world without money. What can be done about this?”

The sheikh answered, “Yes, that is true. If you do not have money and wealth, you cannot have this world; and if you do not have grace, you cannot have that other world. See this clearly with your wisdom and decide which of the two worlds you want.”

“You are the sheikh, please advise me,” said the man.

“You are a man, are you not? Both worlds are under the control of man. If his heart is filled with the absolute faith of iman, he will have the wealth of this world and the next. If man dispels the wants of mind and desire, he will want for nothing; he will have in plentitude the wealth of the world of the souls, this world, and the next world. This explanation is given by the Tiru Qur’an, which is the inner Qur’an inscribed within the heart.”
