INTERFAITH WISDOM

Hadith is a collection of writings second only to the Quran in Sunni Islam.  The Hadith is made up of narratives embodying the words and deeds of The Prophet Mohammad.  Here is a sample that might encourage you. 

The Prophet said, "O Allah, grant me life as a poor man, cause me to die as a poor man and resurrect me in the company of the poor."  Aisha asked him why he had said this and he replied, "Because they will enter Paradise forty years before the rich.  Do not turn away a poor man, Aisha, even if all you can give is half a date.  If you love the poor and bring them near you, Aisha, Allah will bring you near Him on the Day of Resurrection."
