Question

I have a doubt regarding the ones who are poor while still they offer namaz and follow all the other rules properly... I've seen many people who follow all Sunnah's correctly but are poor and in worse conditions. Why is it so? They are close to Allah but are not gifted with luxury why is it so?

Answer

Since you are a slave of Allah Ta`ala, just remain a slave. Don't ask why Allah chose that type of a life for which person. It is not your business to take care of those affairs.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
