Every Ummah has a trial, and the trial of my Ummah is wealth

Every Ummah has a trial, and the trial of my Ummah is wealth

Ka‘b ibn ‘Iyad (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that he heard the Messenger (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) say: "Every Ummah has a trial, and the trial of my Ummah is wealth."

[Authentic hadith] [Narrated by At-Termedhy - An-Nasaa’i - Narrated by Ahmad]

Explanation

Ka‘b ibn ‘Iyad (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that he heard the Messenger (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) say: "Every Ummah has a trial, and the trial of my Ummah is wealth." This is a test for people, as wealth distracts one away from acts of worship and makes one forget the Hereafter.
