وَعَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «لَيْسَ الْغِنَى عَنْ كَثْرَةِ الْعَرَضِ وَلَكِنَّ الْغِنَى غِنَى النَّفس» مُتَّفق عَلَيْهِ.
AbuHurayrah Narrated from:
Allah's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "Richness is not having a large wealth and property. But, true richness is a contented heart." [2]
