This notion of poverty and wealth, humiliation and honor, sovereignty and power, and everything else considered valuable by this ignorant mass, does not exist in the aforementioned divine realm. As it is said in the Quran: "O mankind, you are those in need of Allah, while Allah is the Free of need, the Praiseworthy." (Quran 35:15). Therefore, the intended meaning of wealth is being free of need from everything else except Allah (Ghaniyyun 'an ma siwahu), and by poverty, it means to be needy towards Allah (Faqirun ilallah).
