Some things money can't buy.

The biggest difference between people is the difference in values. Some people regard having material wealth as their purpose in life. He is cynical and takes various measures to occupy more material things. In his values, only with enough power and money can he prove his identity and status. So for this kind of people, faith is just a custom, emotion is just a means, and culture is just an ornament hanging on the chest.

Money can really buy many things, such as sunshine in Australia and snow in Finland, romantic moon in Dali and one meter sunshine in Old Town of Lijiang. But there are some things that money can't buy, such as friendship, trust and follow without regrets. Some people think that money is everything. In fact, money can only be used for trading. In the face of human truth, the power of money is limited. Recognizing the nature of money is more important than having money.

Anyone who thinks that money can do anything has a problem with his faith. If you let him do charity, he will die. There is an Arabic couplet, which is said to say: "A miser can't go to heaven, even if he often worships;" A generous man will not go to hell, even if he does something bad. "This fully illustrates this truth. Behind generosity is trust and dependence on the creator. Therefore, for devout believers, any property is a thing outside the body.

Since ancient times, money has often become a hotbed of corruption and degeneration, and it is often closely linked with evil. Therefore, most of the ancient sages were poor and did not seek material wealth. Allah said, "You will certainly be tested in wealth and body, and you will certainly hear many evil words from those who have been given the Book and those who associate others with Allah.". If you are patient and godfearing, it is indeed an easy task. 」(3: 168)
