LessonsLove of Wealth, Beneficial Knowledge, the Hereafter, and Honesty (Hadith 121–125)Quiz

إِنْ أَرْخَصَ اللَّهُ الْأَسْعَارَ حَزِنَ
Here إِنْ means “if,” أَرْخَصَ “made cheaper,” الْأَسْعَارَ “prices,” and حَزِنَ “he grieved.”

وَإِنْ أَغْلَاهَا فَرِحَ
Here أَغْلَى means “made more expensive,” and هَا refers to prices.

Each condition is followed by a response. The parallel clauses expose opposing attitudes. A general rise in prices does not by itself prove a trader acted wrongly; the criticism concerns exploitation of public need.
