Who is 'Poor' on the Day of Judgement

Abu Hurairah related that Prophet Muhammad  (peace be upon him) asked:
          "Do you know who is poor?"
The companions answered: 'A poor person, in our opinion, is one who has no money.' But Rasulullah  (peace be upon him) said:
          "A poor person among my people is one who faces the Day of Judgment having performed the Salat, Zakat and Siyam but who had insulted someone, slandered someone, misused someone`s money, shed someone`s blood and beaten someone else. Each one of them shall be given some of his good deeds. Should he not have enough good deeds, then he will be given their sins. Then he will be thrown into Hell." (Muslim)
