[/quote]but the prophet , peace be upon him was a rich man with property holdings. Is'nt this the same message that the one percenters capitalists are telling us right now
Jesus Christ said the same thing " for it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven"
The rich are telling the poor that you must be poor and content and your rewards will be in heaven while in the meantime their heaven is right here on earth
