Assalam o alikom......So we have to Focus Mostly On Self-Change And Develop Better Character. Reflect on the difficulties of others to find peace and happiness in your own situation. When you only look at people above you and not below you, you begin to forget your place in life. The Prophet(sal Allahu alahi wa salam) gave us advice on how to deal with the material world by saying: “Do not look to those above you who are more fortunate, instead, look to those below you or less fortunate…” This is because no matter what our situation is, there are always those who are worse off than us. This should be our general strategy with regards to the material life. We seem to be obsessed with it; gaining all we can in this world seems to be the main point that most of us focus our energies towards. So if one must do this then they should not let it affect their inner peace. While dealing with the material world we should not keep focusing on those who are better off than us otherwise we will never be satisfied with what we have. The Prophet(sal Allahu alahi wa salam) said: “If you give the son of Adam a valley of gold he would want another one.” (Saheeh Muslim)
