2 - and money is not evil in itself: but the evil in the misuse, ie, in leisure and entertainment, and pleasures, and in other things do not glorify God (such as bribery).

And if the money was a blessing in the hands of the sons of God, such as Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and Job (ie 29) and Joseph of Arimathea (Matthew 27: 57), Ibrahim El Moallem and Aonba Abraam bishop of Fayoum and Giza and many others.
