Dr. Israr Ahmad explains the true meaning of poverty (miskin) in Islam. It isn’t merely a lack of wealth, but rather the failure to fulfill obligations to others. A person may perform many acts of worship – prayers, fasting, pilgrimage – yet be considered bankrupt on the Day of Judgment if they have wronged people by depriving them of their rightful inheritance, slandering them, or otherwise violating their rights. Their good deeds will be distributed to those they harmed, leaving them with nothing but the weight of their sins and ultimately destined for Hell. This lecture clarifies that true poverty lies in spiritual bankruptcy, not material lack.
