Pretty obvious if you look at the shit they like to promote out of this book. Some of the most famous quotes are "the rich guy and the camel" and "the more you suffer on earth, the more you will be rewarded up there".

Now if i were a ruler in the past, i would write shit like this to keep the poor masses where they are.
