“Man tends to increase at a greater rate than his means of subsistence”
Charles Darwin
“But when He tries him (differently), then straitens to him his means of subsistence, he says: My Lord has disgraced me.”
quran
“Surely your Lord makes plentiful the means of subsistence for whom He pleases and He straitens (them); surely He is ever Aware of, Seeing, His servants.”
“And how many a town have We destroyed which exulted in its means of subsistence, so these are their abodes, they have not been dwelt in after them except a little, and We are the inheritors, / And your Lord never destroyed the towns until He raised in their metropolis an apostle, reciting to them Our communications, and We never destroyed the towns except when their people were unjust.”
“Let him who has abundance spend out of his abundance and whoever has his means of subsistence straitened to him, let him spend out of that which Allah has given him; Allah does not lay on any soul a burden except to the extent to which He has granted it; Allah brings about ease after difficulty.”
“And We have made in it means of subsistence for you and for him for whom you are not the suppliers.”
