Q
What does the interaction between Prophet Job and his Lord teach about the relationship between wealth and divine blessings?
A
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Once while Job (Aiyub) was taking a bath in a naked state. Suddenly a great
number of gold locusts started falling upon him and he started collecting them in his clothes. His Lord
called him, ‘O Job! Didn’t I make you rich enough to dispense with what you see now?’ Job said, ‘Yes,
O Lord! But I cannot dispense with Your Blessings.’
