*Protecting Wealth from the Evil Eye and  Envy: An Islamic Guide with Evidence  and Practice Introduction In Islam, wealth is not just money in a bank.

 *9 Sunnah Rules To Bring Barakah In Your Business _Practical, Quran & Sunnah-backed prescriptions for halal growth_ By [Nosheen Nawaz] | Business & Islamic Lifestyle Coach Would you like your business to grow, but feel like the numbers never match the effort? More sales, but less peace. More clients, but more stress. In Islam, growth without _barakah_ is just more. Growth _with_ barakah is enough, blessed, and lasting. Barakah means increase that you can feel: your time stretches, your rizq reaches further, your work feels light, and Allah puts acceptance in people’s hearts for what you sell. The Prophet ﷺ was a businessman before he was a statesman. Khadijah RA was one of Makkah’s most successful traders. Our deen didn’t separate “business” from “deen.” It gave us rules to make both flourish. Here are 9 Sunnah rules to bring barakah into your business, with references you can act on today. *1. Begin With Tawakkul, Not Just Tactics Tawakkul is not “do nothing and hope.” It...

 updated on 1st Sep, 2026 What to do if you are drowning in debt? _An expert guide combining Quranic perspective,  hadith, and real-world financial strategy_ If you’re lying awake at 2am checking balances, calculating interest, and feeling the weight of "ghalabatid dayn" - being overpowered by debt - you’re not alone. Debt isn’t just a money problem. It’s anxiety, shame, sleepless nights, and strained relationships. Islam addresses it on two levels: the spiritual and the practical. One of the most mentioned spiritual companions for debt is *Surah Al-Waqiah*, and the Prophet ﷺ also gave us specific duas and habits for debt relief. But revelation never asks us to sit and wait. It asks us to make dua _and_ take the means. Here’s a complete, research-backed roadmap. *Part 1: Surah Al-Waqiah and Debt - What Do We  Actually Know? *1.

 Make Your Sleep an Act of Worship: The Islamic View on Rest Sleep is not a pause button on faith. In Islam, rest is part of ibadah when it is done with intention. The Qur’an calls night a time of repose and the day a time for seeking provision, and the Prophet ﷺ taught us how to turn even lying down into worship.
