One may earn enormous wealth while he is in King's service by deceit or robbing. Who would enjoy that illgotten wealth after he passes away.
Wife, children and relatives mourn when a person breathes his last.All his wealth becomes useless for him. Only the sin and piety he earned durig his life accompany him. Is it not?.
