In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.
According to Jaber (may Allah be pleased with him), the Messenger of Allah (May Allah exalt his mention and protect him from imperfection) said: “Be afraid of being unjust because injustice will result in darkness on the Day of Resurrection. Fear greed because it caused the downfall of those who were before you. In fact, it pushed them to shed their blood and to allow themselves what was forbidden to them.” (Reported by Moslem)
