DO NOT CONSUME WEALTH THROUGH UNLAWFUL MEANS

VERSE OF THE DAY:

DO NOT CONSUME WEALTH THROUGH UNLAWFUL MEANS

"Do not consume one another's wealth through unlawful means, but (instead) let there be traffic and trade by mutual agreement."

The Holy Quran, 4:29


The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said:

"Once a man died and was asked, 'What did you say (or do in your lifetime)?' He replied: 'I was a businessman and used to give time to the rich to repay his debt and (used to) deduct part of the debt of the poor.' So he was forgiven (his sins.)"

Sahih Al-Bukhari, Volume 3, Hadith 576
