(He arrived) [Why is money called money]

(Check the original text in Arabic ...)


FUTMAK.COM الفتوحات المكية: الصفحة 584 من الجزء One

Money is called money because it inclines souls to it, but souls incline to it because God has made it possible for him to fulfill needs with it, and man has become obsessed with need because he is poor in essence, so he inclines to it of course, which is unavoidable. If abstinence from money were a reality, it would not be money, and asceticism would be in the afterlife. He has completed a position of asceticism in this world, but this is not the case. God has promised to multiply the reward for a good deed ten times to seven hundred times. If a little were a veil, then a lot of it would be a greater veil.
