Lesson 58. Stick to your word:

Because Allah says in the Quran meaning O you who believe fulfill your promises. This is the first verse of Surah Almaidah. For a muslim, a promise has to be fulfilled. Do not give your word that you will do something unless you have as good as already done it. When the customer expects you to do something in two days and you build it in one, you have under-promised and overdeliver.

You have exceeded their expectations. Now they will be happy to refer you more customers.

Lesson 59. The best horse is black with a white spot:

The prophet pbuh said, meaning the best horse is black with a white spot since the prophet peace upon him, said meaning the best horse is black. One may say the best color for a ride is also black.

The billionaire entrepreneur who drives yellow, orange, red cars pays taxes to people driving black cars. This is my personal observation. People who prefer black cars are more easygoing and generous. SUV is the best type of car because it has more ground clearance. It can offroad a car which cannot offroad is like a toddler still learning to walk. This is why I take issue with performance cars.

How can a sensible man consider something? A car which can only drive in the local neighborhood. On perfect roads.

Lesson 60 Sometimes a setback can be a benefit in disguise:

Allah says in the Quran meaning until they embarked on a ship. So he made a hole in it. He Moosa said, Are you making a hole so it would sink? Its people. Indeed. You have done a grave thing. Later in the chapter, Allah says meaning. As for the ship, it was for the poor people working at sea. So I intended to create a defect in it. And beyond them was a king who used to seize every ship by force.

Lesson 61. Say good things for people:

Allah sayas in the Quran, meaning say to the people good things. People love People who speak good things to them, give them hope, speak positively, and remind them of positive things. The reverse is also true. All social media algorithms mimic this. Would you like to read a magazine which constantly criticized you?

Or the one which highlighted your strengths? Of course the latter. This is why podcast formats work so well. Because they take the viewer to a lounge where people trust each other. Do not become a source of unhappiness for people. Keep quiet. If you can’t become a source of positivity for people, the prophet, peace be upon him, said a believer should say something good or keep quiet.

Lessons 62. All War is deception:

The Prophet, peace be upon him, said meaning all war is deception. Khalid Ibn Alwaleed May Allah be pleased with him. Surprised the Romans by crossing a desert considered impossible to cross. The Germans took France by crossing seven divisions of armor through a forest considered impossible to cross. The English beat the Germans by deploying fake tanks and misleading them.

The Germans could have spent very little resources to verify their aerial intelligence from multiple sources, at least two. But they were too overwhelmed on many fronts. They made a basic mistake. This shows if enemey’s senses are made to be occupied by a lot of things. The enemy defeats itself. They could have just not invaded the Soviets, which halved their army.

Even if the Soviets did invade later, the Germans could have just held them off for four to six months and let Winter take its course against the Soviets.

Lessons 63 Cleanse your inputs:

Allah says in the Quran meaning indeed. Sound, sight and understanding about all of them. You will be asked about them all.

all of them will be asked about if these influences are in line with the understanding of Quran and Sunnah, and their understanding by the companions. By the tabi’een and taba tabi’een, then you are good

Lesson 64 So you may be introduced:

because Allah says in the Quran, meaning we made you into branches and tribes so you may be introduced.

The best among you are those with the most Taqwa. Every tribe is known for a set of professions and there are four big types of professions. Men, media, money and machine professions affect people’s habits and appearance. Habits are automatically taken on by the child. People’s habits are also affected by the kind of terrain they live on. Certain tribes have certain professions, habits and behaviors.

Before dealing with people, ask them about their tribe and see what you can find about their tribes’ history.

Lesson 65 You are given rizq because of your weak ones:

The prophets pbuh said meaning. You are given sustenance because of your weak ones. This is why, as a business owner, you should hire as many employees as you possibly can while making a good profit because employees have families they are leading.

Lesson 66 man is created hasty:

Allah says in the Quran meaning. Beautiful people are the desires they fulfill from women and sons and heaps upon heaps of gold and silver and branded horses and cattle and crops. This is a small supply for the life of this world, and with Allah is an excellent place of return

meaning man is created hasty. People want instant gratification. People want things fast right now, like a spoiled baby.
