Reminder

Prophet PBUH lived very humbly but remember that Islam does not prohibit a person from possessing luxuries and the finery of this world, provided that one remains grateful to Allah, and helps the poor financially with one's resources.

After the passing of the Prophet PBUH- when Islam spread to distant lands and the Muslims became more advanced both technologically and militarily-wealth flowed into Madinah and other parts of the Muslim world. 

The companions would then remember the simple life led by the Prophet PBUH. 

"The one among you who wakes up secure in his property, healthy in his body and has his food for the day, it is as if the whole world were brought to him."
