System – Not Goal

One of the best articles that I have ever read. I wrote my Family Business book just like this, so I know it works. My Juma Khutba books are another great example. My system is one Khutba every week. The result is three complete books of 52, Khutbas each and the fourth one in progress… Continue reading System – Not Goal

A man once came to al-Hasan al-Basri and complained to him: “The sky does not shower us with rain.” He replied: “Seek Allah’s forgiveness (i.e. say ﺃﺳﺘﻐﻔﺮ ﺃﻟﻠﻪ ).” Then another person came to him and said, “I complain of poverty.” He replied: “Seek Allah’s forgiveness.” Then another person came to him and complained, “My… Continue reading Istighfar wa Tawba

Time Management – #7

Same paper. Same story. Same day. Different markets designed to play to different audiences. Why? To better inform one group of readers over another? Of course not. It’s to sell more papers. Not only will media craft points of view for stories based on what sells best, they will pick the stories that sell best.… Continue reading Time Management – #7

Dhul Hijjah

Rasoolullahﷺ said: There are no days more beloved to Allah that he be worshipped in them than the ten days of Dhul-Hijjah, fasting every day of them is equivalent to fasting a year; and standing every night of them (in Salaah) is equivalent to standing on the Night of Qadr.
