Allah, He is The All Rich!

For English, scroll below the Arabic text.

 

لايوجد هناك غني واحد علي سطح هذه المعمورة.
أكثر الناس أموالاً وأكثرهم ذكاءاً وأكثرهم سلطة ونفوذاً لا يمكن وصفه بالغني.
الغني هو ليس وفرة مالديك، ولكنه هو القدرة علي الإستغناء أو علي الإحتياج إلي الأشياء المادية منها والمعنوية. وهو أيضاً عدم الحاجة إلي الآخرين.
الإنسان يخلق في حاجة إلي من تحمله وتمده بالغذاء.
الإنسان يحيا في حاجة إلي من يرعاه ويعلمه ويأويه حتي يشتد صلبه.
الإنسان ينتشر في الأرض ويتكاثر من خلال حاجته إلي الجنس الآخر.
الإنسان يحتاج إلي الإنسان في العمل وجمع المال والتملك والشراء والبيع.
الإنسان يحيا في حاجة ويموت في حاجة.
الإنسان دائماً في حاجة.
الإنسان مهما امتلك ومهما تسلط ومهما كبر وعظم شأنه فهو فقير.
كل إنسان فقير... لأنه دائما في حاجة.
الغنيُ هو فقط من ليس له حاجة لأي شئ.
اللّه هو فقط من ليس له حاجة.
اللّه هو مالك الملك.
"اللّه هو الغني وأنتم الفقراء".
"إن اللّه هو الغني الحميد".
سبحانك ربي...جل جلالك وعظم شأنك.
عَلِمتُ أنه لا غنيٌ سواك.
وعَلِمتُ أنه كل من هو سواك فهو فقير.
كل من هو سواك فهو في حاجة إليك.
أنت المعز... أنت المنعم... أنت الرزاق... إنت القابض... أنت الباسط... أنت الكريم...
وأنت المجيب.

There is not a single rich man on the surface of this planet.



The most affluent, the most intelligent, the most powerful and influential people could hardly be called a rich.





Being rich is not the abundance of what you have, but the ability to dispense with or need the material and intangible things. It is also the absence of a need for others.






Man is created in need of someone to bear him and provide him with food.





A person lives in need of someone to take care of him, teach him and shelter him until the age of maturity.




Man spreads across the earth and reproduces through his need for the opposite sex.



Man needs people to work, collect money, own, buy and sell.



Man lives in need and dies in need.





People are always in need.




A person, no matter how much he possesses, no matter how dominant, and no matter how great and great he is, is poor.



Every person is poor ... because he is always in need.




Only the rich have no need for anything.




God, only He has no need.



God, The Owner of All Sovereignty.




"God is the All-Rich and you are the poor."




“God is the All-Rich and the Most Praise Worthy.”




Glory be to my Lord ... Glory be to you, and the Glory of Your Affairs.



I knew that only you were rich.



I learned that everyone but you is poor.




Whoever is not you, undoubtedly needs you.





You are The Bestower of Honour... You are The Blessing ... You are The Ever Providing ... you are The Holder ... You are The Expander, The Munificent ... you are The Most Generous …-




And You are The Answerer of All Prayers.
