Duties of the Believers in different situations

Every believer has responsibilities and duties owed to his Lord, fellow muslims, humanity, and every creation that exists.


What is his duty if he is rich?

• Understanding that his wealth is a trust of Allah.

• Trying to live modestly and spending the surplus in the way of Allah.

• Avoiding waste and meanness. 

• Spending the opportunities given by Allah in the way of Allah.

• Taking care of the poor. 

• In short, being one of “aghniya’ shakirin” the grateful rich people.

As a matter of fact, Allah Almighty said about Prophet Sulayman AS, who fulfilled the duties of being a wealthy person; “What a beautiful servant he is!” (See. Sad, 30)


What is his duty if he is poor?

• Happily continuing servitude and working hard, with patience with whatever means he has.

• Not making his deprivations an excuse for mistakes and disobedience. 

• Not saying “why?” and giving up all complaints. 

At were times the Prophet would tie stones to his stomach due to hunger 

but he never complained about his condition. He always lived in a state of 

praise, gratitude and contentment.

This is the state of being one of the “fuqara sabirin” the poor with patience”. It has been reported that they are the same as the rich people of gratitude in terms of conveying contentment to Allah, and that they will even enter 

Paradise before them.

Allah also said about Prophet Ayyub AS, who showed perfect patience and contentment through all the immense difficulties he faced; “What a beautiful servant he is!” (See. Sad, 44).
