Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh, dear brothers and sisters in Islam,
As Muslim entrepreneurs and professionals working from home (or working from anywhere), we often juggle high ambitions with the need to maintain our deen, family, mental well-being, and halal success. The entrepreneurial path brings unique tests: long hours that cut into salah and dhikr, isolation that can lead to loneliness, pressure from societal myths of “overnight success,” and the constant battle against burnout while striving for rizq that pleases Allah.
In these moments, protecting our mindset is an act of worship—because a sound mind helps us stay patient, grateful, and resilient, as the Prophet ﷺ taught us: “Tie your camel and trust in Allah.”
That’s why I recommend Self-Help for Entrepreneurs & People Working from Home: How to Improve Mindset so You Can Live Your Best Life (co-authored with Dr. Firdous Bibi). This book is not another “get rich quick” scheme—a library reviewer called it “different & refreshing” for exactly that reason. It exposes the unrealistic myths of entrepreneurship, addresses loneliness and self-doubt, and offers practical, grounded strategies to build resilience, set healthy boundaries, and cultivate a balanced life that honors both dunya and akhirah.
As one reviewer, Demi, beautifully put it:
“Self Help for Entrepreneurs & People Working from Home is a timely and insightful guide that tackles the mental health challenges faced by entrepreneurs and remote workers. By exposing the myths of overnight success, addressing loneliness, and offering strategies for resilience, the book provides readers with practical tools to improve mindset and live more balanced lives. With its blend of truth-telling, encouragement, and actionable advice, the book has strong potential to resonate with entrepreneurs, freelancers, and professionals navigating the pressures of modern work.”
~ Demi
The book draws on real experiences (including my own as a Muslim entrepreneur navigating entrepreneurship across cities like Dubai and Antalya) and focuses on mindset shifts that align with Islamic principles: self-compassion without arrogance, community support (ummah connections), avoiding toxic influences, and daily habits that protect our energy so we can show up fully for our ibadah, family, and work.
Best of all, it’s available at many libraries worldwide (over 50 libraries globally have added it, including in the US, UK, Canada, and beyond—check your local library, OverDrive, Libby, or Hoopla for digital borrowing). You can also get it on Amazon (ebook, paperback, or hardcover) and major booksellers.
May Allah make our efforts blessed, protect our hearts and minds, and grant us success in this life and the next. Ameen.
If you’ve read it or have questions about applying these mindset tools in a halal, faith-centered way, feel free to share below—let’s support each other insha’Allah.
Jazakum Allahu khairan.
