Wealth Reflects The Heart
- Wealth itself is morally neutral; its value depends on the state of the heart.
- A pure heart magnifies wealth positively while a corrupt heart magnifies harm.
Tawakkul Means Take Practical Steps
- Practice true tawakkul by taking means: pray and then act — network, build skills, apply for jobs.
- Don't confuse passive hoping with responsible effort when seeking rizq.
Practical Steps For Sharia Investing
- Screen investments for Sharia compliance: ensure the primary business is halal and pass accounting/liquidity checks.
- Purify any small haram income portion (e.g., up to 5%) when you receive dividends or profit.
