People Fall Into Three Categories: by akinsmail51: 8:56am On Jan 01
Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah (may Allah have mercy on him) said: People fall into three categories:

The rich, who have more than they need;

The poor, who are not able to earn enough to meet their needs;

And the third category, which is those who have just enough to meet their needs.

Hence there were some prominent Prophets, Messengers and people among the early generations (namely the Sahaabah) who were rich, such as Ibraaheem al-Khaleel, Ayyoob, Dawood, Sulaymaan, ‘Uthmaan ibn ‘Affaan, ‘Abd ar-Rahmaan ibn ‘Awf, Talhah, az-Zubayr, Sa‘d ibn Mu‘aadh, Usayd ibn al-Hudayr, As‘ad ibn Zuraarah, Abu Ayyoob al-Ansaari, ‘Ubaadah ibn as-Saamit and others who were among the best of mankind, such as Prophets and siddeeqs (those who are strong and true in faith).

And among them were some who were poor, such as the Messiah ‘Eesa ibn Maryam, Yahya ibn Zakariyya, ‘Ali ibn Abi Taalib, Abu Dharr al-Ghifaari, Mus‘ab ibn ‘Umayr, Salmaan al-Faarisi and others who were also among the best of mankind, Prophets and siddeeqs.

And among them were some who alternated between the two; they were rich at some times and poor at other times. Thus they were able to attain the virtue of those who are rich and charitable, and the virtue of those who are poor and have patience, such as our Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him), Abu Bakr and ‘Umar.

End quote from Majmoo‘ al-Fataawa (11/124).
