Writing · Adversity & Resilience
Argues that prolonged adversity after prosperity reveals more than friend and enemy: withdrawals have many causes, sympathy can mask opportunism, help can become control, and pain distorts the observer. Drawing on the Qur’an and Sira, it counsels observing without judging souls, thanking those who stayed, and accepting that people are never fully understood.
Talk · Education & Parenting
A talk urging teachers to treat their work as building the Ummah, not merely a job, and to withstand pressures at work and home by strengthening heart and mind through daily Iman renewal, Zikr, Durood and Istighfar, with lessons from Salama ibn al-Akwa, Yusuf’s Taqwa, and Tawakkul as effort followed by contentment.
Writing · Business, Wealth & Ethics
Conflict of interest in our families, businesses and institutions, and the pretence that protects it
Argues that conflict of interest in family firms, trusts and committees becomes khiyanah when concealed, and that feigned ignorance of it is a second betrayal. Drawing on Surah Sad, al-Mutaffifin and the Sunnah, it answers common excuses, exposes private use of jointly earned goodwill, and prescribes disclosure, written records, recusal, audits and mediation.
Book · Business, Wealth & Ethics
The Complete Edition
Ninety-five lessons for Muslim entrepreneurs, moving from a Financial Times podcast on the Prophet ﷺ as trader to the Qur’an and the Sunnah. Argues that commerce under Tawhid keeps profit lawful but answerable to Allah, and that truthfulness, amanah and disclosure are the highest-return strategy, not a tax on profit.
