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.
