The hadeeth says that the best person is he whose sustenance is just enough, it is not too much nor is it too little. In this lies one’s safety. If it was too much then it can lead to haughtiness and pride, and it has a negative impact on one’s children. With an abundance of wealth, they become lazy and end up as delinquents. Likewise, if it is too little then one will begin stretching out his hand before others. But if the sustenance is just enough allowing a person to break even, then his heart is at ease, he has humility and his children also turn out to be hardworking.
