Although fats and meats look fine and most demanded food, yet a prudent and judicious father prefers to throw it before hounds instead of giving to his children.
Allah
Almighty
So,
such measure stops them to rebel. Hazrat Musa Alaihis-Salaam
Our Lord! Lo! You have given Pharaoh and his chiefs splendor and riches in the life of the world, Our Lord! that they may lead men astray from Your way. Our Lord! Destroy their riches and harden their hearts so that they believe not till they see the painful doom (10:88)
Once
the Holy Companions Radhi-ya-Allahu Ta-aala Anhum

In short, the worldly abundance and enlargement and the worldly power and reign often proves a fatal venom against Eimaan. Always the Eimaan and Islam has flourished under the circumstance of poverty and paucity whereas for the growth of the damned Tree of the Kufr, Shirk and Nifaaq, the conditions of the riches of Dunya (World) proves quite suitable and favorable. What fine words late Iqbal have said about this:
These are the poor, who stand in lines for Assalaat (Prayers) in Masjids, These are the poor, who take the troubles of Fasting, If there ever is one who commemorates Our Name, it is the poor, If there ever is one who gives consideration to Us, it is the poor, The rich are heedless against Us in intoxication of the riches, The glowing nation is living by virtue of the existence of the poor!
In short, the kings of the previous eras were religious and pious by themselves. There was sufficient value and worth of the Doctrine of Faith and the Faithful and they often doled out their treasures for the service of the Faith and Religion. As a result, the Religious Guides and the Spiritual Leaders of the Course, that is, the Respectful Aulia also extended their support and help through their Inwardly Audacity in their ventures for the state and for the extension of the state. Those kings were the true sympathizers and really kind for their subjects and the subjects were also obedient to them in true spirit. The rule of those kings was not just on the bodies alone but they also ruled over the hearts of their people because the Inwardly Oulul-Amar persons, who hold their Tasarruf over the hearts and Spirits, were with them in their actions and all the times accompanied them as patrons. Although there were no vehicles, trains and airplanes for transport and travelling nor were there fast communication systems like telephone, telegraph, radio and wireless etcetera and the king lived thousands of miles away from some territories, yet the Invisible effect of his government and kingdom remained in Current and in action all over the domain. It felt as if the king is present inside every house. Until the time the shadow of the Oulul-Amar People-of-Allah and the Inwardly Mutsarrifeen was on their heads, none was there who could dare to rebel against them and refute their orders because that government ran by virtue of the presence and invisible participation of the People-of-Allah.
