From Abdullah, the son of Umar, may Allah be pleased with him. The prophet. may the peace and blessings. of Allah be upon him said meaning people are like hundred camels, you can hardly find one worthy of riding.
Among them. When you hear people say business is a numbers game, this is what they mean. It means you have to explore a big number of options 100 to be precise, before you get one good hit no matter what you are doing. Hiring employees? start with 100 applicants. Finding customers. Ask 100 people or set up shop at a place where 10,000 people pass by every day looking for a job.
Approach 100 hiring managers who are similar to you.
Ibn Majah may Allah have mercy on him. One of the biggest Hadith collectors of hadith, brings an entire chapter of Hadith titled If a man finds a way of earning a living, he should stick with it. Here we will refer two ahadith from this chapter. The first one says, If you achieve something, stick with it.
And the second one means if Allah gives you provision from a source, you shouldn’t leave it unless it changes. Shytan is the enemy of every Muslim, Allah says in the Quran. And indeed, Satan is your enemy. So take him as your enemy. Satan cannot see a muslim succeed at anything. So when a muslim achieves something good, a profit in a trade or success in a business or a good halal job that Allah allowed him to get. Satan, tries to make him switch shytan and tries to make him think it’s not good in one way or the other.
So the Muslim would start over again and we seek refuge in Allah from such a thing. This is a trap shytan makes many people fall into. As a result, they never stick with something. Before you start, you should know what profession will be the best for you. It is a profession you will be proud of your kids telling others about.
It is a profession your family will be proud of telling other people about. It is a profession you can visualize yourself doing happily until your last day on earth. This is usually a combination of four things. The profession of your ancestors. What is in demand today? What you are skilled at and the economy of the city you live in?
We ask Allah to Forgive us and give us the profession which is best for our life and the next.
One of my kids was hesitating, climbing the rope ladder in the park. She thought she couldn’t do it. I have no idea who tried to put this idea into her head.
Perhaps a relative who wanted to make her co dependent. Who is she or anyone else to put a limiting belief like the kids head? It is only shytan who will try to put a belief like this in a kid’s head. Whereas Allah made the kid perfectly capable of learning and doing things by himself or by herself. This was very painful for me to hear.
Every day we’d go to the park. I’d stand beside her and tell her to climb. And she’d say, Baba, hold the ladder for me. So I held the ladder for her. She did it by herself. The next day she said, Hold the ladder for me. And I lovingly said, You can do it without me holding the ladder. All it took was 2 to 3 tries, and she climbed the ladder all by herself.
As I stood and encouraged her with a smile and positive words, I kept an eye out. Until climbing the ladder all by herself became second nature to her, which is when she graduated from the School of Baba. No school or teacher in the world can do this for a child. Only a parent can. We ask Allah to forgive us and to allow us to be good to our children and to teach them Islam and the world Ameen.
The Prophet peace be upon him, said meaning command your kids to pray salah when they are seven years of age and beat them for it when they reach ten and separate them in their beds.
How can a parent strictly command their kids to do something other than Salah, Before the age of seven?
Allah says in the Quran meaning the example of the people who spend their moneis seeking the pleasure of Allah, believing in the reward with certainty their example is that of a garden on a high ground which got ample rain and yielded fruit in double. Then, if not heavy rain, a drizzle and Allah is aware of what you do.
A garden on high ground is a good place to build a house. Your house is a representation of you people. Judge you based on your house. You with other Muslims may become pioneers and move to the outskirts of the city on major thoroughfare and build three or four houses together. This land will become very valuable in 10 to 20 years.
You may also build and set up a masjid trust there and get a house in Jannah in the process and make a place for cattle and planting fruiting trees, especially date pomegranate olive and grapes, whichever is best suited to the land and set up a place to teach and learn the Quran and join the best of Muslims because the prophet peace be upon him, said the best of you are those who teach the Quran and those who learn it.
We beg Allah to forgive us and to give us the best in this world. And the next
This lesson is mostly about women and how they may manipulate their men or other men. The wife of Aziz of Misr. She tried her best to lure Yusuf pbuh to commit adultery with her, but failed Allah says in the Quran, meaning and when he saw his shirt was cut from the back, he said, it was your trick.
And indeed your trick was great. And when she got caught, she said to her husband, who was the Aziz of Misr what to do with the one who intends bad to your family to turn Aziz of Misr against Yusuf pbuh. And this is how women of unjust character turn brother against brother. So if you ever hear something bad about a muslim brother, see who is telling you the thing.
And always verify every important thing from multiple sources. At least two reliable sources.
And the prophet peace be upon him, said meaning a woman who prays her five daily prayers fasts her month of Ramadan guards or chastity and obeys her husband will enter paradise with whichever gate she pleases. Now, let me ask you this question. My dear Muslim sisters, you have a clear cut, step by step, easy to follow and understand.
Path to paradise. What is preventing you from following it?
The Prophet. Peace be upon him said meaning for things are a part of happiness. A good wife, a big house, a good neighbor, and a comfortable mount. And today, cars are of four types sedans and performance trucks, work trucks, hatchbacks and SUV’s. And the prophet peace be upon him said the best horse is black with the white spot.
One may say the best car color is also black. You must buy a car from the most reliable brand because only a reliable car is comfortable and safe. And you must prefer to buy a truck or an SUV because they are higher up from the ground and hence closer to the horse and the camel. Safer and more prestigious.
People who plan yearly are set for the full year. They have no anxiety about their finances tomorrow, the next week or the next month. They have a full year to refill the next year’s finances. This is why these people keep growing wealthier because they have less cognitive load, which allows them to focus on building wealth.
Whereas people who do not plan yearly have their cognition overloaded with the worries of tomorrow. The first thing you must plan for yearly ios good food because the prophet peace be born, him said. No one has given something better than well-being after Eman
