The ruling on being content with two or three children out of fear of poverty

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. What about the one who says, "I will be content with two or three children out of fear of poverty"?

Answer:
And what if they die? Do you guarantee that they will be righteous? You do not guarantee that! Poverty and wealth are not in your hands; they are with Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He).
