πΉ How to increase wealth in the family?
One of the outcomes of frugality is the increase in wealth. π
π¦ For instance, if three people start the same business with equal conditions, and one is frugal, the other one is tight-fisted, and the third one is extravagant, the one who is frugal will have a lasting fortune.
Imam Ali(as) says:
"Whoever practices frugality, God will make him needless and wealthy. " π°
βΊ In different verses of the Holy Quran, God has addressed the Muslims saying "If some good should befall you, it upsets them (your enemies)", that is because they are envious of your progress.
There is a lot of squandering and excessive consumerism going on in the Islamic countries, which can be fixed, should the Muslims follow wisdom and prudence. πΈ

We need to establish a relationship with the Imam of our time, Imam Mahdi (a), while we are still alive. This relationship with the Imam helps us grow to spiritual maturity, to the point that we can reach their rank and be with them.
The Imam of our time is our real father, because we are the (spiritual) children of Ahl al-Bayt. Those who are looking for tranquillity, happiness, power, and success in life, should get familiar with their true human nature, and fall in love with it.

your spouse and children are your enemies if they make you neglect God (part 2)
Love your spouse in a way that it wouldn't force you to stand against God and his commands.
For example, your spouse has no right to force you to dress in a way that is against the teachings of Islam. according to Islamic laws, clothing has a certain etiquette. of course, in the confines of your house, you should dress in a way that would please your spouse, but the outside world is different. We should be respectful toward the laws of God about clothing and not violate other people's rights when we are outside, by dressing inappropriately.
In this sentence "your spouse and children are your enemies if they make you neglect God", an enemy is a person who violates our divine status and destroys our Paradise and hereafter. that is why Islam also doesn't allow us to earn money through unlawful ways for the sake of our parents or our siblings or even our spouse and children.
It is the sign of utmost faith and nobility, when a person is willing to shoulder the dislike and hatred of others, for the sake of pleasing his true beloved, God.
Love doesn't always come with happiness and bounties. oftentimes, it accompanies loss and deprivations. everyone who wants to prove their love to their beloved should prove it through enduring loss and deprivation, and yet persevering in their love.
it is dangerous to always worry about what others think. as long as one considers the priority of his beloved ones, one shouldn't worry about what others want, when the commands of God are clear. This might seem to make people dislike or even hate us, but at the end of the day, one's honour and respectability are in the hands of God.

As much as the comfort level of human increases, his tranquillity decreases. this is a truth about the system of this world.
A good example of this is when a hungry person is offered a simple food that he likes. He would eat the food until he is full and will leave the table without looking back at it. but, if a hungry person is offered many different types of delicious foods on a big table, he would jump between them without being able to really enjoy them, and at the end when he has become full, he would still be unsatisfied, because he couldn't taste all of the foods, or was always looking for something more delicious, when he was eating something.

We have breaking news this hour regarding journalist and Press TV news anchor Ms. Marzieh Hashemi.
We have been informed of her arrest and imprisonment in Washington DC. The reasons for her arrest remains unclear, although no formal charges have been pressed against her.
Ms. Hashemi who had been traveling within the United States to visit with her ill brother and other relatives was detained in a Saint Louis airport on Sunday, and has now been transferred to a Washington DC facility by the FBI.
Relatives had been unable to contact Ms. Hahemi for over 48 hours, and only recently learned details about her detention.
Even though there are no charges against her, Ms. Hashemi informed family members of her ill treatment in the prison facility. She described her hijab having had been removed against her will and that she is being treated as a criminal even though there are no charges against her. The prison officials have also denied her access to halal or vegetarian dietary options for the past few days, only serving her meals with meat which she has refused to eat. She mentioned that she had only been able to eat Pretzels and bread.
Keep in mind, that Ms. Hashemi who was born in the United States is an American citizen, who has not been found guilty of any crimes. She is a journalist here at Press TV and we will certainly be following up on her situation as we learn more.

Allah tests you by your possessions and children.
β οΈβ οΈβ οΈ
There is no one unless he is being tested by Allah for the purpose of their spiritual development. One of those tests is through their possessions and children.
As it is said in the Glorious Quran:
Ψ₯ΩΩΩΩΩ ΩΨ§ Ψ£ΩΩ ΩΩΩΨ§ΩΩΩΩΩ Ω ΩΩΨ£ΩΩΩΩΩΨ§Ψ―ΩΩΩΩ Ω ΩΩΨͺΩΩΩΨ©Ω ΩΩΨ§ΩΩΩΩΩΩ ΨΉΩΩΨ―ΩΩΩ Ψ£ΩΨ¬ΩΨ±Ω ΨΉΩΨΈΩΩΩ Ω
"Rather, your possessions and children are a test, and Allahβwith Him is a great reward!"
Another type of these tests is through one's virtues and good deeds. if someone believes that he's superior to others, due to his faith, virtues, knowledge, or good deeds, he has already lost in the test of God and is imprisoned by his ego.
An example of this is when a virtuous person sees a sinner with apparent sins and thinks that he is better than them. God also tests people by the virtues He gives to them, to see whether they flaunt it to others or not.
If your virtues make you feel superior to others and you start breaking someone's heart, then you've lost. The virtue that you had, turns into a misery/fire for you, and you will no longer receive any spiritual light from it.
Anything that makes you feel superior to others and fuels your ego, is a dangerous thing, especially when it has religious roots. for example, if you think you are superior to others, because you've fought in a war, or do midnight praying, or had success in doing spiritual deeds and serving Islam, ..." or if someone's knowledge or expertise, like being a doctor, engineer, professor, cleric, etc. makes them feel superior and causes them to boast to others, they will surely lead him to hell.
It is said in hadiths that if somebody boasts to others even by his shoelace, he will not be able to enter paradise. It is because he is being chained by it and his soul is not free; Therefore when it is taken from him, he will be depressed and sorrowful.
These are all among the tests of God.

Considering oneself as merely a man or woman, is the start of making grave mistakes in one's life. And the reason for this is because the person's view of him/herself, the way they treat their family and others, and their behaviour toward God will be based on their masculine or femine aspect, and not based on their divine aspect which is their soul.
