Quotes
In the khateeb's words
“Taqwa walks into the market. Taqwa walks into your negotiations. Taqwa walks in your business when you make business deals. Taqwa walks on you in your job interviews.”
“It's not the louder du'as. It's cleaner income. Cleaner risk. So always check the source of your income. Check the source of your risk. And be honest about it.”
