"muslims shouldn't be rich"
don't listen to them
salaam ‘ilm seeker,
how many times have you heard that?
being poor is not being pious.
being wealthy is islamic.
I always found myself choosing.
Do I spend time on the deen?
reading the Quran,
attending lectures.
Or do I spend time earning?
Working on my business,
aiming to be wealthy.
I felt conflicted.
This is time spent away from the remembrance of Allah.
Until I realized.
Why not both?
The Prophet SAW himself would ask Allah swt for rizq.
And the Prophet SAW was given so much.
He spent it all in Allah's way.
Look at Uthman Bin Affan.
The leader of the Muslims.
And is GUARANTEED jannah.
Because he served the ummah by spending in Allah's way.
Earning with the intention of pleasing Allah swt is worship.
Finding the balance is key.
This is what I want for myself and you for 2025.
I’ve created the fastest growing muslim skool community (alhamdulillah)
to give you the tools we need as muslims to build a barakah business.
It has everything you need to know -
from forming your niyyah to creating your first product —
all from an islamic perspective.
May Allah swt accept from you and I.
JazakAllah khair for your support always.
fi amanillah,
hamza navid
