Material wealth is immaterial to Allah
While wealth is a blessing from Allah, it is also a test from Him as it may encourage one to forget Him, and act arrogantly. This is the reason why many of the prophets, including Nuh (AS), had a large number of poor followers. The affluent among the nation of Nuh (AS) asked him rhetorically, 'Should we believe you while you are followed by the lowest [class of people]?' (26:111) What these people failed to realise is that the level of wealth one possesses has no value in the sight of Allah; it is rather one’s faith and conduct that matter to Him.
