Hizbullah and wealth: don't they sound like US TV evangelists?

"Hizbollah figures, for their part, contend that there is no contradiction. When I spoke to Ibrahim Moussawi, the party’s spokesman, he told me that wealth was not a concern for Hizbollah. “There’s no problem with enriching yourself as long as it does not involve anything haram,” he said. “Even during the Prophet’s time there has been rich people and poor people. Khadijah” – the Prophet Mohammad’s first wife – “was a rich woman actually, a merchant. In fact it’s said that had it not been for Khadijah’s money, a lot of the work of the Prophet never would have happened.”...But, Fayyad continued, “Hizbollah, it is not a small party anymore, a minority, it is a whole society. It is the party of the poor people, yes, but at the same time there are a lot of businessmen in the party, we have a lot of rich people, some elite class. This is normal, because Hizbollah has become one of the biggest parties in Lebanon.”" (thanks Elias and Nate)
