The key to sustenance and blessings




Allah is our Creator. Allah is our Sustainer. He is the giver of the sustenance that I get. Many have sustenance, there is a way to earn sustenance. But still, as if, 'No, no, I want, I eat.' 'Yoghurt with yoghurt in hand, but where to say.' And that means there is no blessing in his provision. Because, if there is blessing in the provision, there is little work. There is no shortage. On the other hand, if there is no blessing, most of the work is not done. Lack does not sting.


   Blessing is not only in sustenance; Rather blessed is, on all things of the world. Home, car, wife, children, friends, wealth, industry, business, farming, earning, knowledge, knowledge, invitation work, etc.


Take the following advice and guidance. In shallah you will be blessed with sustenance. Of course, it is your responsibility to act accordingly.


   1. Keep the fear of Allah in the jewel of your mind. It is a treasure that will fill your life with abundance. Allah the Almighty said, "If the villagers had believed and been pious, I would have opened for them the gates of the blessings of heaven and earth." (Surat al-A'raf: 98) He added: "Whoever fears Allah, Allah will make easy for him the means of salvation, and will provide for him from a place which he could not have imagined." (Verses 2-3 of Surah Talaq)


   2. Put your trust and confidence in God. "And whosoever puts his trust in Allah, He will suffice him." (Surat at-Talaq: 3) The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: He goes out on an empty stomach in the morning and returns home on a full stomach in the evening. ” (Ahmad)


   3. When you are in need, keep your head up and tell God about your need; Not to any man. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: But he who is in need, if he informs Allah of it (fulfillment), then He will remove his need sooner or later. ” (Tirmidhi)


   4. Recite the Qur'an regularly; The Qur'an is a blessed thing.


   5. After the Fajr prayer, pray for sustenance and blessings in regular du'aa ',


‘Alla-humma inni asaluka ilman na-fiau a rizqban twayibaun a amalam mutaqbabbala.’ That is, O Allah! Verily, I ask You for fruitful learning, lawful sustenance and acceptable deeds. (Sahih Ibn Majah 1/152, Mazmauz Yawaid 10/111)


By giving sustenance to another, you can also get blessings from him.


   . Keep on asking for forgiveness (asking Allah for forgiveness) regularly. Because, in that comes ruzi. Referring to Prophet Noah (peace be upon him), Allah the Almighty said, "I said to them, 'Ask forgiveness from your Lord.' He is the Most Forgiving. He will send abundant rain for you. He will enrich you with wealth and children. And He will make for you gardens and will cause rivers to gush forth. (Surah Nooh 10-12)


   8. As much as you get sustenance, as long as you stay, always give thanks to the giver of sustenance. Because, the wealth of pigs increases. Allah the Almighty says, "Surely Allah rewards the grateful servants." (Surah Al 'Imran 144) “If you are grateful, I will surely increase your wealth. And if I am ungrateful, My punishment will surely be severe. " (Surah Ibrahim 6)


   How many blessings Allah, the Almighty, has bestowed on us cannot be counted. It is obligatory for the servant to realize all these blessings. The rule for collecting pigs is to first acknowledge in the heart that this blessing has come from Allah. The second is to realize his pig in the mouth. Thirdly, to express pigs in work. That is, that blessing is in the way of His satisfaction; To spend on the cause of relieving the needs of the poor, on the path of establishing the religion of Allah and on the path of preserving His law. Otherwise there will be ingratitude or ingratitude.


   . Get rid of greed. Because greed destroys blessings. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said to Hakim bin Hiyam (may Allaah be pleased with him), “O Hakim! These goods are (tempting) fresh and sweet things. So whoever accepts it with generosity of mind, it will be blessed. And whoever accepts it with greed, it will not be blessed. His condition will be like that of a person who eats but is not satisfied. ” (Muslim)


   9. Speak the truth in business. Absolutely eliminate lies. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: If the merchant (both the buyer and the seller) speaks the truth (in buying and selling) and reveals (the faults and qualities) of the commodity, then he is blessed in buying and selling. Otherwise, if they hide (the faults and defects of the goods) and tell lies, then even if they seem to gain, their blessings of buying and selling are destroyed. And it is right to introduce false oaths, but it destroys the earnings (blessings). ” (Bukhari 2114, Muslim 1532, Abu Dawud 3459, Tirmidhi 1248, Nasai)


10. Eliminate usury and all kinds of haraam earnings. Bank interest is also interest. So leave that too. Because, Allah the Almighty says, "Allah wipes out usury and increases charity." (Surat al-Baqarah: 28) The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: (Ibn Majah 2269, Hakeem 2/36, Sahih Ibn Majah No. 1848)


   No matter how much the usurer consumes, the result is bound to be less. It may seem like a lot, but in reality it will have no value or blessing. This is a punishment from Allah.


   11. Get up early. There is blessing in the middle of the morning after Fajr. The Prophet said, “O Allah! You bless the dawn of my Ummah. ” And if he sent an army, he would send it in the morning. Sahabi Sakhar (may Allah be pleased with him) was a businessman. He also used to send (people) in the morning business. As a result, he became rich and had a lot of wealth. (Abu Dawood, Tirmidhi, Nasai, Ibn Majah, Sahih Abu Dawood No. 2280)


   12. Eat according to the Sunnah to be blessed with food. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said, “Blessings are in the middle of the meal. So don't eat from the middle. ” (Bukhari)


   13. Give alms out of whatever you have. And do not be stingy at all. Because, goods are blessed with charity and goods are destroyed due to stinginess. Allah the Almighty says, "Whatever you spend (in the way of Allah), Allah will give you more in return." (Surah Saba, verse 39) Allah says, “O children of Adam! 'Give to (the needy) and I will give to you.' (Muslim No. 993)


   The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “As soon as the servant arrives every morning, two angels descend (from heaven) and one of them says, 'O Allaah! You reward the benefactor. ' And the second said, 'O Allah! Destroy the miser. ” (Bukhari No. 1442, Muslim No. 1010)


   14. Help the seeker to seek knowledge. Give him money and help him in his search for knowledge. It will also bless your industry, trade and livelihood. There were two brothers in the time of Allah's Messenger. A Prophet used to come to him and teach him Hadith and Ilm. Others used to earn money by doing any handicraft. Once this artist appeared before his brother Nabi অভিযোগ and complained that his ঐ (Talebe Ilam) brother did not help him in any way. On hearing this, he replied, "Perhaps you are the one who is getting sustenance (thanks to the teaching of knowledge)!" (Tirmidhi 2348, Si. Sahihah No. 269)


15. Maintain kinship. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "Whoever wants his sustenance to be extended and his life to be extended, let him fear Allah and maintain his kinship." (Ibn Hibban No. 439)


"Whoever chooses to increase his sustenance and prolong his life, let him keep his kinship intact." (Bukhari 206, 596, Muslim 6-7)


"Wealth is increased to maintain good kinship, there is harmony among family members and longevity is increased." (Tabarani's Kabir 1821, Awsatb 610, Sahihul Jame No. 36)


16. Perform Hajj-Umrah. Allah's Messenger (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, "Make Hajj Umrah and Umrah follow Hajj." (That is, if you perform Hajj, perform Umrah and if you perform Umrah, perform Hajj.) (Nasai 2630-2631, Tirmidhi, Nasai etc. from other Companions, Tabarani No. 11033)
