Flaunting wealth is against my religion, not that I have any wealth to flaunt to begin with. It is Sunnah to live in a humble way and give generously.
Your state in the Dunya (world) and Akira (afterlife) are inversely related. The higher you are in this world, the lower you are in the afterlife, and vice-versa. Thus, it is characteristic of Muslims to embrace a simple and humble way of life.
To reject materialism in favor of asceticism, liberating oneself from material attachments and their demanding obligations.
Look at the conditions that my people are living in. I have been homeless, lived in shelters and tents, nothing like this. The zionists bomb homeless people living in tent camps.
How could I live like a rich man while my people live in these conditions? My conscience does not allow it.
People in America look down on me for being poor, but the way I live is luxury compared to this.
I even feel guilty for what I have. A desktop computer hooked up to a big tv display. I should really just sell these things.

By having fewer things, I can get closer to God and to my people.
When you die, you can't take stuff with you.
You are judged for your life FOREVER.
FOREVER. What is this life?
A flash mist. Poof, gone.
What next? FOREVER.
Heaven or Hell.
FOREVER.
