Hadeeth 31

The Muslim is Contented and Satisfied

From Abu Hurairah (radiyallaahu 'anhu) who said that Allaah's Messenger (salallaahu 'alaihi wa'sallam) said:

Richness is not having many belongings, but richness is the richness of the soul (contentment).[51]
So the greatest of riches you can attain, O servant of Allaah, is contentment of ones soul, and having a contented heart and this will not be achieved except through humbling oneself before Allaah, the One free from and far removed from all defects, and calling upon Him in supplication and in placing reliance upon Him. So he whose soul is contented and rich will increase in his.

51.Reported by Muslim (Eng. Trans. 2/501/no.2287)
