Ahmed Suleman Khatani – 4 main principles to have a successful business

Petition that went out in the path of Allah, 500 horses with their

saddles. What is 500 horses in today's terms, it's like 500

Mercedes Benz, 500 BMWs giving one time in the path of Allah. He

spent to such an extent, Yet Allah gave him so much.

This was the dua of Rasulullah sallallahu, alayhi wa sallam,

Abdul Rahman binau, where he says, Allah gave me so much Barkat that

at times I would pick up sand and I would expect that to turn into

gold. Also, Abdul Rahman bin abufradi, Allahu done are coming

back to the point we were making not only your Salah, not only your

tilawad, not only your zikr, not only your tablier, not only your

Hajj and Umrah, not only your fasting, Willa and you Jannat

Walla, business also business, also business, also when it is

done according to Sharia, when it is done according to the beautiful

example of Muhammad, Rasulullah sallallah sallam, not just Jannat

Abdul Rahman Bino, of such wealth, he could probably buy the whole of

Africa. That is the amount of wealth he left behind. Yet, top 10

Sahaba. Top 10 Sahaba, not just jannathi V VIP Jannati.

There is one saying of Abdul Rahman binahu.

Someone asked him one day, how is it Allah gave you so much? Barkad,

he said I had four principles in my earning, and this is what we

want to discuss. Time is limited, but nevertheless, whatever Allah

gives opportunity

weigh these principles that are derived from sunna in the manner

in which we, you and I are doing business today. First principle,

he said, he said, I never purchased anything on credit. I

never bought anything on credit. If I couldn't afford it, I didn't

buy it, and I never sold anything on credit. Never bought on credit,

never sold on credit. Imagine, imagine if we are to come on this

half the tension is gone today. What is the tension? Somebody

mentioned one joke the other day. They said, Abdullah went to Abdul

Rahman, borrowed 100,000 from him.

Abdullah wrote a check for the end of the month, 100,029th

of the month came. Abdullah is pacing up and down. Wife asking,

what happened? Why are you facing he says, I gave abd Rahman a

cheque is due tomorrow. There's nothing in the account. The check

is going to bounce.

So she goes out of the room, comes back a few minutes later, says to

her husband that, you know what? I phoned Abdur Rahman's wife, and I

told her that don't worry. Tell your husband, don't worry about

depositing. The cheque is not going to get met now you can go to

sleep because he'll be awake.

This is what business has become today. Credit on its own, it's

allowed, but unnecessary debt, unnecessary debt, taking on debt

for business expansion, taking on debt because of Lalit and greed.

Look at the warnings that the Sulu la salaam gave one day, he told

one person, sabi na rates, wahoosi, rajulan Allah was giving

one person nasihat advice. What a Nasir Allahu Akbar, uswatun

hasana, uswatun hasana. Uswatun hasana, beautiful example. What

does my Nabi say? He says to this person, Akil Mina, yahin, alaikal,

mouth.

Akil Minas, dunub, yakin, Ali Kal Mau. He said, listen your Gunas

and your sins make lesson. Your mortal become easy for you and

Akil Mina, dein, Akil me nadain, incur less debt, stay away from

death.

Taish, Puran, you will love a free man. Allah rasoo, Sala Islam in

the early stages in Madina, manovara, when a Sahabi, Sahabi

Sahabi tarajud guzar, every night in tahajjud, everyday fasting.

When his Janaza would be brought Navi salasam would ask the

question, does he owe anybody money? If the response was given,

yes, he owes somebody. Allah a slum would not lead that Janaza

salah. He would tell them, you all perform the janazah salah, and he

would go away.

Sahabi,

once a person is brought, somebody says it nabislam is about to leave

his Janaza, mafuma of the riwaya. Somebody says, ya rasulat, this

man was a bad person, a gun agar Sinha,

so Nabi isla. Ashlam asked the Sahaba that are present, Has any

one of you seen him doing anything good. So one person said, Ya

rasulallah. He and I together, we stayed awake an entire night

guarding in the path of Allah. Allah Islam says Wa. People are

saying that he is a Jahan Nami. I can see him in Jannah. And Nabi

Islam leads his Jana salah. But when it comes to someone, where

that.

Eight

once Rasulullah, sallallah, sallam, Janaza is brought Allah.

Rasulallah

is any family member of this person here, somebody steps

forward. Nabi sasam says in nasahiba Kum habisa, alababi,

Jannah, Your companion has been blocked. His entry to Jannah is

blocked because of his death.

Fain sheet um fat duho, if you want take over his death and

Ransom him, why in shetum aslimu, ILA Abullah, and if you want to

hand him over to razab of ALLAH, so that person says, ya

rasulallah, alay adeinu, I take responsibility for his death. Then

Nabi Islam led the janazah salah. It is mentioned in the rewired

what was his death to dinars, two dinars. And this was the reaction

of Rasulullah sallallahu sallam. This hukum of not performing the

janazah Salah was abrogated towards the latter part. But this

was to teach the Ummat Muhammad bin Abdullah bin jahashradi Allah,

who says, One day vistam came out of the kabrastan Jannatul Baki

Sadaam was leaning against the wall, all of a sudden, caught his

head. Subhanallah MENA TASH deed, what a weighty what a weighty.

Ruhokam has come.

Far off now was a katana. Sahaba say, we saw his reaction. We were

afraid. We didn't even ask him. Yarsula, what has happened? We

waited a whole day. The next day, Muhammad bin Abdullah bin jahash

masters the courage ya rasulallah, matasht al Adi unzil, what was it

that caused you to grab your head like that? What was so heavy? He

said. Jibril came and informed me that if someone of my ummat

becomes a Shaheed in the path of Allah, is given life, becomes a

Shaheed again, is given life and becomes a Shaheed again,

but he has death. He will never enter Jannah.

This is not a joke. It's not something light, unnecessary

death. Today, the whole market place is on credit.

And what is and

what is. The tragedy behind this

is that people are living beyond their means. You never know what

your business is worth, because everything is on credit. It's like

a tire without air.

It's a deception.

Everything with a plastic card, everything hilted to the banks,

driving a fancy car, living in a big house, but collar empty,

nothing there.

Allah Himself, at the time of his demise, was indebted, but that was

a different debt. It was not unnecessary debt, not for business

expansion, not to fulfill knowledge of dunya. Be content

have Kana coming back to this. First point, he said, I never

bought anything on credit. Second point, I never sold anything on

credit. Third point, Allahu, Akbar, what does he say?

Maharadhat, to rivakhan khattu, Maharaja. He said, whatever I had,

if anybody made me an offer, if I was making a profit, even if it is

one, ran in our terms, I didn't hold it back. In the anticipation

of more profit. I would sell it immediately, even if the prophet

was less. Alira, the Allahu in Kufa, would take a whoop and walk

in the bada of Kufa. And he would say, La Taru, kalira, rib fat

Ramu, Kati Rahu, he would say to the businessmen of Kufa, don't

turn down a small Prophet and hoard your goods in the

anticipation of more profit. If you're getting a prophet, shall

Allah will give you more varkad, Abdul, Rahman, minawradi Allahu,

this was the third principle Mara that to rib cut to I never held

anything back or hoarded what happens when, when we expect a

commodity to become scarce, we put in the warehouse? Why the price

will go up, I'll make more profit. This is not the Usul of Islam.

This is not the Misha of a Muslim businessman, a Muslim businessman,

halal earning Halal Prophet Sal Allah will give you even more.

There will be Barka. There will be blessings in it,

the fourth principle,

Abdul, Rahman, minawradi, Allahu, daala, anhu,

the source of that baraka and blessing. One was the dua of

Rasulullah. SallAllahu, sallam. The other hand, what does he say?

Allahu, Akbar,

he said, I never concealed the defect of any item.

I never concealed the defect of any item. Allah, rasulallah, Islam

himself would patrol the marketplace of Madinah Ali, man

after Zohar salah. Once there was rain. Allah rasoo Sala Islam, in

afternoon is walking in the marketplace. He sees someone

selling grain. The grain is dry. In other words, superior quality.

It's not wet. Allah

alaihi salam, seeing this.

Uma khada, Amin al halal, Amin al haram. He said, The time will come

upon my ummat. They won't care. They won't care where the wealth

is coming from, whether it is halal or haram. They will not

worry about as long as the coffers are being full. Understand risk is

written. You are not going to get more. You are not going to get

more. Allah Assam, you are not going to get more. But you can

earn Jannat, not just Jannat, fir dos. You can earn the highest

Jannat. You cannot Allah. You cannot Allah's forgiveness. You

can become Allah's Wali, if your earning is halal, if your earning

and your livelihood is according to Sunna, if it is according to

the practices of Rasulullah sallallahu, some little bit Sabha.

Allah will test you. No doubt that is Allah, and then see how Allah

will open the door. Stay on halal. Stay away from unnecessary debt.

Stay away from trechiri. Stay away from lies. Stay away from

deception. Stay away from River. Stay away from putting wool over

the eyes of others. Allahu, Akbar, 3,102,000,000

dinar. Abdur Rahman, Tala. And what does he say? I never bought

on credit. I never sold on credit. I never held goods back in

anticipation of increased profit. And I never, I never concealed the

defect of that which I sold. Allah give us tofi Guha.
