Which of the two sayings is more correct: "I made riches contentment" or "I made contentment riches"?
Source: FtawySummarized from the full answer at Ftawy · imported Sep 2, 2026
The saying "Contentment is richness" is better than "Richness is contentment"; for contentment is the true richness, as the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Richness is not having many possessions; rather, richness is the richness of the soul." And the saying "And richness was made contentment" is not correct.
