Mishkat al-Masabih 5290 — (Ar-riqaq) Words that soften the heart

One of the sahabah (Prophet's Companions) رضي الله عنهم of the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم narrated: we were sitting in an assembly when Allah's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم came to us. He had on his head some moistness and we said, "O Messenger of Allah, we find you to be in a delighted state." He said, "Indeed!" The sub narrator continued: Then, the men turned to talk about wealth (whether richness was good or bad). Allah's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "There is nothing wrong for a man to possess wealth if he fears Allah, Mighty and Glorious, But, a sound health is better than wealth for him who fears Allah, and cheerfulness is a blessing" (of Allah for which the recipient must thank Allah. The Quran says that you will be asked about it, in its verse 102: 8).
