The answer

Allah Almighty has differentiated among people in sustenance, and the wealthy are not required to spend all their money. Rather, they are obligated to fulfill financial duties such as and supporting those under their care. It is recommended for them to give abundant charity, do good deeds, and provide generously for the needy. Indeed, charity does not diminish wealth; rather, it increases it: "And whatever you spend of anything, He will compensate it; and He is the best of providers," and "You will not attain righteousness until you spend from that which you love."
