It is narrated from Muhammad bin Umar (al-Waqidi): Ibn Abi al-Zinad relates from his father that Sayyiduna Hakim bin Hizam (may Allah be pleased with him) was asked: O Abu Khalid, what is (the true essence of) wealth? He replied: "Having few dependants (that is, having few responsibilities)." The narrator says that Sayyiduna Hakim bin Hizam (may Allah be pleased with him) came to Madinah, settled there and built a house, and he passed away in Madinah in 54 AH, when he was one hundred and twenty years old.
