Re: Inspirational quotes for the Muslim entrepreneur
"As a community we're very willing to invest our money into creating new buildings or programs and so on, but not so much into our people.
It's very difficult to find people who are willing to financially sponsor a scholar, a student of knowledge, a da'ee, or a Muslim seeking to become a professional of some sort. But investing in our people is the most powerful investment we can make."

That is why the Prophet ﷺ says about such people that poverty is always in front of their eyes. That is all they see. No matter how much they have, there is no contentment, only greed for more and fear of loss." - Yasmin Mogahed

Re: Inspirational quotes for the Muslim entrepreneur
You should aim to be perfect and as motivated as man can be, as many people are restricting themselves either to isolation from worldly matters or from studying Sacred Knowledge, and only very few combine complete knowledge with complete action.
Re: Inspirational quotes for the Muslim entrepreneur
"Let’s start with the end in mind.
So you’ve got your business; and you’ve become successful.
What do you do next?
What should you do with all that money?
The answer is simple;
spread the good.
Spread the blessings around you.
Imagine putting a smile on all those faces.
Did you know there is nothing less than Jannah as a reward for someone who puts a smile on another Muslim’s face?
Imagine all those prayers.
Imagine all those transformed lives.
Imagine your new community.
Their prayers and gratitude will bless and increase your wealth."
Re: Inspirational quotes for the Muslim entrepreneur
Remove the love of dinars and of dirhams from your heart until they become as pebbles and sand in your eyes. Remove the wish to be thought highly of from your heart until your are indifferent to people's praise and condemnation, and to whether they are attracted or repulsed by you. For the love of prominence is more harmful than that of money, and both indicate desire for the world.

Teach your children from a young age about entrepreneurship.
Qualities of leadership people, resilience, serving others, being in the upper hand to give rather than receive, negotiation, truth-worthiness, honesty, understanding other people's character and acceptance... The list is endless.
The qualities of good character & responsibility are nurtured and as Muslims these are the foundations of our faith. He (sws) came to perfect our character.
Re: Inspirational quotes for the Muslim entrepreneur
This is interesting. Thank you for the inspiring quotes. I am creating in the future again my 1st entreprenurial business called Nsyd Pen where we Pimp Ur Pen! We have these stickers called tags that we insert inside the pen to give life to it. Do you know that having this for your simple and cheap pen is very helpful and effective because I've noticed that you oftentimes lose your pen whether your at school or at work. You sometimes forget it at home or lose it on the road. Even gets stolen! So to have a unique, original, and personal pen this is what I thought of. When I was in 3rd year highschool, I was scolded by my teacher in PE because I forgot my ballpen and we have a test on the spot. I also frequently neglect the importance of a single and simple pen to have. Not making it personalized makes it look dull, boring, common, and just like any other pen of others that can be mistakenly thought of as not yours if an incident may happen like that, right? I thought of it one time while not enrolled and I was at the front vacant lot of our house in our village and I have no money and I was thinking of a way to make some. I was holding a pen a while ago and brought it there and I thought of the idea because back then I was already doing that with my name inside by tearing a paper and inserting it inside my pen. Therefore, the risk of losing it is minimalized. Get it? Ha ha. I still can't post links, just a few more posts left before I can do that so you can just search for Nsyd Pen on facebook or google. I have a fan page and a website on blogger. Astagfirullah but I'm really proud of what I have invented. It's truly one creative pursuit. Inshaallah with faith, I will succeed.
