You already know the answer to this. Just replace the word "Quran" with "Bible." Think how a deeply religious person would feel about their holy book being their most valuable possession - whichever book it is.

The Quran is the word of God its teachings can lead the man to paradise, something no amount of money could ever do.
Worldly possessions will make this man only rich during his short stay in this world.
If he follows the teachings of the Quran he can also be rich in the next life.
Riches come in many forms for some its gold, other silver, pearls, diamonds maybe even silks. But to this man all these things are only creations. They are blessings given to mankind from God. The words of his creator in the Quran are more important to him.

Well, I'm assuming that you disagree with the statement as you've answered the second half without answering the first.
That woudl mean that any answer you get here would be less than honest and would conflict with your opinion which is the point of the exercise in the first place.
So your answer to 1. would be that you do not know why he would consider himself rich with only Allah's words.

If the world is counted valuable; surely the house of God's rewards is higher and more worthy. If bodies were created for death; surely being killed with swords in the way of God is a more honorable death. If the share of daily sustenance, of each creature is provided by the creator, surely it is not descent for man to be greedy for gaining and eating too much. If wealth is amassed for one day to be left. Then why a free man becomes so miser on something he has to leave

A noun could be a individual, place, element, or concept. [eg: John, residence, Soup, Freedom are all nouns.] A verb is an action be conscious [to run, to bounce; working, leaping, and so on] An adverb is a be conscious that describes ["qualifies"] the verb--in lots of situations ending in --ly. An adverb can answer the question "how?" [ie: how replaced into he strolling? He replaced into strolling SLOWLY." "A preposition links nouns, pronouns, and words to different words in a sentence." --working example, the guy walked between the vehicles. An adjective is a be conscious that describes a noun. [eg: SPOILED soup, marvelous freedom, CLUTTERED residence.] With that for the period of concepts, i think of you are able to answer this your self! good success and let us know in case you have extra questions!

True richness, true wealth is not in money, property, cars or anything material, true wealth is closeness to God.
The Quran is a means to draw closer to God.

Because there is a "hadith", Prophet Muhammad saying that the poor from the islamic nation is one who has came on judgement day with prayers, and fast and good deeds, but he had unjustly treated a person, and hit another, and......so merits are taken from him and given to them, till he runs out, so he takes there sins and is thrown in hell.
