ليس الغنى عن كثرة العرض إنما الغنى غنى النفس

  • True wealth is not the abundance of objects but in the richness of spirit (i.e. the lack of desire for objects).
     
    Is the word عَرَض 'worldly goods'? I think it is, based on the following:

    الدنيا عَرَض حاضر يأكل منها البر والفاجر
    The world is present worldly goods, the righteous and the unrighteous eat of it.
