It is often seen that people who claim to be religiously inclined praise poverty and look down upon or even negatively upon those that are involved in business, trade, or are simply rich. This article aims to discuss this over-glorification of poverty, show the heavy emphasis that is laid on being independent and earning enough such that you can benefit the community, and lastly, the correct understanding of zuhd. This is a very important discussion to have as this is holding back a large number of Muslims from reaching their true potential.
