Concerning this section of ur blog: “Of those people who have over $400M in personal holdings (and there are quite a few), not one of them says “let me retire in peace”.

It reminds one of the hadith, that there are two category of greedy people in the world, and all of us fall into one of these categories. They are (paraphrased):

  1. A person who gets ilm but is never happy, keeps wanting more knowledge.
  2. A person is getting wealthy but is never satisfied and wants to acquire more wealth.

The category we choose to fall into determines our akheera.

May Allaah (swt) protect us from falling into that which displeases Him (swt).
