As-salamu aleiykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh brothers 😊 Every Muslim can benefit from this in sha Allah. I put together 3 tips that will guide you in making more effective du’a. But first, 2 common mistakes that might be holding you back: ❌ DON’T be shy about what you ask from Allah. No request is too big or too small for our Lord! Allah tells us in the Qu’ran [50:16]: “And We have already created man and know what his soul whispers to him, and We are closer to him than [his] jugular vein.” So, ask with full faith. He hears you. ❌ DON’T say “Allah isn’t answering my du’a.” He always responds to your du’a. Sometimes the answer is “yes”. Sometimes it’s “later”. And sometimes, it’s more than you asked for. As the saying beautifully puts it: “When you get what you want, that’s Allah’s direction. When you don’t get what you want, that’s Allah’s protection.” Trust in His wisdom, even when things don’t unfold the way you expect. This is the meaning of Tawakkul. === With those out of the way, here are the 3 actionable pieces of advice to help you make your du’a more effective, in sha Allah: 1) Clear Intention Du’a is most effective when you know exactly what you’re asking for. Be specific. What outcome are you aiming to achieve? Ask yourself: “If this du’a is accepted, what will change in my life?” Then repeat your du’a consistently. Repetition shows sincerity and conviction.🤲🏻 And a reminder that some moments are more likely for du’a to be accepted: - During sujood - When it’s raining - After obligatory prayers. - While fasting, especially at iftar - Between the adhan and iqamah. - The last third of the night before Fajr. - During the hour on Jumu’ah (Friday) when du’a is accepted. 2) Do Your Part Du’a isn’t a substitute for action. Whatever you ask from Allah, look for the means (asbab) which He provided you. Anas ibn Malik reported: A man said, “O Messenger of Allah, should I tie my camel and trust in Allah, or should I leave her untied and trust in Allah?” The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said,

As-salamu aleiykum brothers. For those of you who post content to generate inbound leads, do you direct that traffic anywhere? From my experience, relying on platforms to play nice, and algorithms to spread your message can be a bit dangerous. Nowadays, big accounts get canceled all the time—even small accounts get shadowbanned or wrongly closed (it's happened to me across multiple platforms). The best solution I've found is email. Since it can be exported to a CSV file, your email list could be your strongest digital asset. That said, it takes time and skill to build. It's far from a "set it and forget it" type venture.

I’m a 27 year old Muslim living in Australia ☪️🇦🇺 Practicing Islam in modern western society has challenges—so I'm building my online business to get more control of my time and environment in sha Allah. If this is your too, here's a reminder ✍️ Next time you sit down to work on your business, start with Dhikr. Allah is Al-Khaliq (The Creator): The One who brings everything from non-existence to existence. So remember that every idea you bring to life is a small reflection of His infinite creativity. Alhamdulillah.
