Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Whoever is afflicted with poverty and presents it before people (to fulfill it), his poverty will not be fulfilled; and whoever presents his poverty before Allah Almighty, it is near that Allah Almighty will grant him sufficiency: either in the form of a swift death or in the form of swift wealth."
