Sunan Ibn Majah 4129 (Book 37, Hadith 30) #33485
The Dangers of Wealth and How to Use it Wisely

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) warned against the dangers of being wealthy, and encouraged people to use their wealth in a beneficial way.

It was narrated from Abu Sa’eed Al-Khudri that the Messenger of Allah said: "Woe to the most wealthy except those who do such and such with the money, and such and such" – four things, (pointing) to his right, to his left, in front of him and behind him.
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَأَبُو كُرَيْبٍ قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا بَكْرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، حَدَّثَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ الْمُخْتَارِ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى، عَنْ عَطِيَّةَ الْعَوْفِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ـ ـ أَنَّهُ قَالَ ‏ "‏ وَيْلٌ لِلْمُكْثِرِينَ إِلاَّ مَنْ قَالَ بِالْمَالِ هَكَذَا وَهَكَذَا وَهَكَذَا وَهَكَذَا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ أَرْبَعٌ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَعَنْ شِمَالِهِ وَمِنْ قُدَّامِهِ وَمِنْ وَرَائِهِ
