Try to make ends meet , you're a slave to the money then you die."
-"Bitter Sweet Symphony" by The Verve
"its only after you loose everything that you're free to do anything"
just imagine the freedom you would have if you didnt have to worry about stability, maintaining your material possessions (cars, house, et..), et.....another fight club quote:
"the things you own end up owning you"
Also, money tends to clog up your heart. :P
I believe that Allah created us all equal, and that we do not take our money and material possessions with us to the grave. I believe that we as Muslims living in America have become too materialistic...it is all about winning the rat race and achieving the American dream.
It seems that Desi Muslims that come to America to achieve the American dream and become rich and successful are starting to overlook essential Islamic values, such as being humble, being generous, giving money to the poor, NOT showing off. Also, it seems that the richer a Desi gets, the richer he wants to become. They do not seem satisfied making only $150,000 a year. They cannot stop there. They need to make a lot more....and buy fancy cars, have a fancy house, etc, etc....and it is all about showing off to the rest of the Desi community. NOT IN ALL CASES, but thats what I have observed. So much competition amongst the community.
It also is a pet peeve of mine to see Desi Muslims spending thousands of dollars on watches, when there are Muslims all over the world who do not even have enough money to feed their children.
Does anyone else agree with me?
how important is it? hmmmmm, lets see, without it you cant go to school, feed yourself, shelter yourself, cloth yourself... should i go on?
So from corollary 1 and 2 we prove that money and women are a) almost same and b) inseperable.
Tell me about root of evil.. damn so close, almost anagram.
are money and women connected??
but i would argue that money is indeed a root of buggerloads of evil.
as well as a root of many things good.
but yes, i agree Workers of the World Unite, specifically to secure more money for ourselves.

So, I have to say it's too close to call which root is closer to evil.
Money, much like Naseeb eventually connects you to evil people who enslave many.
Workers of the world unite!
