Refutation to those wrong lists

Information can be spread in just a second today. Many are coming from the Kuffaar especially from the people of the west. So I will throw some comments refuting some of their claim.

Every year they make a list of the most happiest states, many of them are the states of the Kuffaar. This is not correct, the believers are happier, when the believer is touched by any blessing, they thank Allah, and that is better for them. When the believer is struck with a calamity, they are patient and that is better for them. This only happen for the believer. The believers are indeed happier than people who do not recognize Allah and disobey him.

They also make a list of the wealthiest people, this is also wrong. Wealth belong to Allah, and the believers are the inheritors of the eternal paradise, so they are wealthier than the wealthiest of this dunya. Also the wealthy people of our time deal with riba or usury or an interest which is haraam.

They also do list the successful people of the world, this too is wrong. Those who believe in Allah and did rightous deed while staying away from sins until death, are the successful people.

The most knowledgeable or educated people are those who learned the Qur'an and Sunnah, not the philosophers or thinkers. The most developed people are the believers. May Allah grant us a deeper understanding.

Was Salaam.
