The Prophet (a.s) said: “Whoever likes to be the strongest man should rely on God. Whoever likes to be the noblest man should be pious, and whoever likes to be the most needless man should trust in what is in God's Hands more that what is in his own hands.”
وقال (صلى الله عليه وآله): من سره أن يكون أقوى الناس فليتوكل على الله، ومن سره أن يكون أكرم الناس فليتق الله، ومن سره أن يكون أغنى الناس فليكن بما في يد الله أوثق منه في يديه.
