In this age of entrepreneurs and hyper rich people, the best a | Jannah is Our Dream

In this age of entrepreneurs and hyper rich people, the best advice I can give to our youth regarding rizq is that it is more dependent on Allah’s will then your own hardwork. This is not to deny hardwork’s role. But how many a people do same hard work or even more than a person who became a millionaire or billionaire, yet they never reach that figure. Yet those who have reached that figure will tell you that to be honest it was mostly luck and fluke and that perhaps they did not do that much hardwork as others have.

So keep revising these lessons:
1- Allah expands rizq for whomever He wants and constricts for whomever He wants.

2- Taqwa (God consciousness) and tawakkul (trust in Allah) are key to rizq. Hardwork comes later.

3- The above may make you ask, why then we have hyper rich men who are non Muslims and don’t have taqwa or tawakkul. The answer to this is, rizq is not just financial wealth. Rizq is social wealth (loyal people attached to you who love you for Allah’s sake), time wealth (barakah in time and getting time to do good deeds), Emotional wealth (contentment, composure, tranquility). If you are simply looking for money, then follow their rules. But if you are looking for the holistic concept of rizq then follow Islamic rules.
