The Condemned Competition in This World

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Shaykh, what is the competition that is condemned in the Shari'ah in the hadith
and do not compete for it as they competed for it?ولا تنافسوا كما تنافسوها؟


Answer:
He (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
I am not afraid of your poverty but I am afraid that you will lead a life of luxury as past nations did, whereupon you will compete with each other for it, as they competed for itما الفقر أخشى عليكم، ولكن أخشى أن تبسط عليكم الدنيا كما بسطت على من كان قبلكم، فتتنافسوها كما تنافسوها.
Sahih al-Bukhari 3158
