One should treat money

Sheik Ul-Islam Ibn Taimiyyah said:

"One should treat money with grace so that it is blessed for him, not take it with greediness and fear that it might be lost. Rather, money should be like using the toilet. You go to it when you need it and never let it reside in your heart."

{Majmu' Al-Fatawa, vol.10, p.662}


Ibn Taymeeyah said:

The servant is always between a blessing from Allah that requires his thanks and a sin that requires the seeking of forgiveness. Both of these circumstances, by necessity, are always with the servant. For that reason, the chief of all humans and the leader of the pious, Muhammad (SAW), would seek forgiveness in all situations."
