The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ was informing us to be careful and mindful of our actions and to always strive for what is lawful and just. We should never compromise our morals or values for the sake of material wealth, as this could lead to dire consequences in both this life and the hereafter. We must remember that Allah SWT knows all our intentions and actions, so we should always strive to do what is right in His eyes.
