Say: Pride not yourselves on earthly riches ye possess.
Reflect upon your end and upon the recompense for your works that hath been
ordained in the Book of God, the Exalted, the Mighty. Blessed is the rich man
whom earthly possessions have been powerless to hinder from turning unto God,
the Lord of all names. Verily he is accounted among the most distinguished of
men before God, the Gracious, the All-Knowing.
- Baha’u’llah (Compilation of
Compilations, vol. 1, Huququ'llah)
