Question:
Your Eminence the Shaykh! We ask for an explanation of the phrase: "And the one who is eager for offspring, his eagerness will not benefit him."
Answer:
This wealth of yours is its wealth, the true wealth and fortune. What benefits him from Allah, if Allah does not make him self-sufficient, what benefit is there in his wealth? And this wealth of yours does not benefit him, meaning it is a substitute for you. People are poor in need of Allah, Mighty and Majestic. Yes.
