How to incorporate barakah into your company

  • Being kind to your parents can help you succeed. In particular, pay attention to how you treat your mother, whose prayers may make things work in your favour.
  • Give Sadaqa: There are several accounts of Muslim-owned businesses that encountered difficulties and were able to escape them by making substantial donations to the charity.
  • Have Tawakkal: When you have Tawakkal (dependence on Allah), miracles have occurred. You’ll be presented with unanticipated possibilities when you place your faith in Allah.
  • Maintaining Silat Urahim, or kinship, is emphasised among Muslims. There is also a hadith that advises encouraging kinship, or getting back in touch with your family, if you want your Rizq (maintenance) to increase.
  • Be grateful to Allah because He will give you more if you do.
