Equitable Distribution by Allah the Almighty

 On the Day of Judgment, everyone’s account will be realized according to their conditions.

In this respect, Umar Ibn Al-Khattab RA lived his life in a continuous state of zuhd (asceticism) due to the concern of responsibility. When his daughter Hafsa RA proposed him to raise his own salary a bit;

He said: “O daughter! Let my burden be light and my accounting be easy!”

And added:

“The two friends (the Prophet PBUH and Abu Bakr RA and I are like three travelers on the same path. The first of us (the Prophet) reached his station. The other (Abu Bakr) followed the same path and reached it the first. The third, who is me, would like to reach my friends, too. If I go with a heavy burden, I can’t keep up with them! Don’t you want me to be the third of this path?” (17. See. Ahmed, Zühd, p. 125)

In the light of these examples, when this world is viewed with the vision of heart, it can be seen that it consists of the manifestations of Allah’s Names.

In this world, some people will be poor due to the manifestation of the Names al-Qabid (the Constrictor) and al-Mani (the Withholder), while others will become rich due to the manifestation of the Names al-Wahhab (the Bestower). and al-Latif (the Subtle). Some will be healthy, some will be sick, some strong and some weak.

Every human being is subject to a test with the opportunities and conditions that are given due to these manifestations.

It should be noted that; The fact that a person is rich does not mean that Allah values him. Likewise, the fact that a person is poor does not mean that he is worthless in the sight of Allah.

The heedlessness of this materialist mentality, which measures everything in terms of worldliness, is stated as follows in the Qur’an:

“And as for man, when his Lord tests him by honoring him and favoring him, he says, ‘My Lord has honored me.’

But when He tests him by restricting his provision, he says, ‘My Lord has

humiliated me!.” (Al-Fajr, 15-16)

Challenges Faced by Community Health Practitioners

Community health practitioners face various challenges in fulfilling their roles effectively, including resource constraints and training needs.
