Very few things in life could cause me greater sorrow. May my sins in life never be so great that Allaah(swt) would punish me with unearned wealth.

I would much prefer to find a way to live on a smaller income. I feel anything beyond my needs would destroy my ability to find joy in what I now have. If I am ever punished by sudden wealth I hope I find a worthwhile person or charity to give it to, before I spend even one penny of it.

There's so much wisdom in that - but that should be expected from our forum granddad! :D

I cannot imagine what possibly to do with such a vast amount of money ...

I have a house which meets the need of my family.
I have a small car which takes me places.
I have pretty much all the material goods I need.

I would like to provide for my parents in their old age - especially for my stepfather with his ongoing health problems.
I would like to put money aside for the education and future provision for my children.

Apart from that I am quite happy as I am. My happiness largely comes from things which money cannot buy ...

I think I would be quite content to give most away to a charitable cause or to start a charity myself.
 
Salaam,

I'm not sure what to do with 1 million dollars. I'll wait until Britain runs into hyperinflation. XD
 
buy a fast car for me,
buy a nice house for my family
and give the rest away.

...carry on working :omg:
 
Well, i doubt anyone's going to get a million dollars, but what would everyone do if they got a good salary, say $10,000 when your monthly expenses are about $3000. what would you do with the extra money?

I'd either bin it or donate it to charity. Life is difficult as it is, add that sort of money into the mix and it'll only lead to a path of total destruction
 
Buy a house cash,
A decent "riding beast"
And open a huge office with loads of employees and prayer facilities and advertise free services for believers who are in bad situations, including debt, injustice complaints, arbitration, jurisprudence, and legal services.
 
I'd probably see about opening up some Islamic schools. Especially for girls and women. There aren't many around here and it's unfortunate that Muslim parents have to send their children to Catholic schools or the public facilities which often times aren't very good academically. Children also pick up some not so great behavioral habits which can cause further problems in the home. Investing in the youth of the Ummah is important as they are the future Muslims of the world...

Beyond that, I'd like to see about getting some type of organization going to educate Muslims about riba in the West as it too is a problem.
 
I'd start a waqf, and appoint myself chief director of it. I'd buy stocks for the money, and make it grow. I'd have an operating target of slowly increasing the total value of it to slightly outpace inflation. Any profit beyond that would be available for distribution for various Islamic community projects. I'd receive and review applications and determine how to use it to benefit the local ummah in the most cost-effective way possible.
 
I'm not sure what i'd do. it's a lot of money, 1 million.

i think it would be wise to divide it. use a percentage to buy things i need. save another portion for later use. invest another portion and use the proceeds to help others. and a fourth portion to be used for charitable causes or to lend to people in need, etc.
insha-Allah.

but where would i get that money?
 
this is some thing seems impossible but can be possible if Allah(SWT) wants it to be..:p

if...if...if...this comes true, what i m going to do with it, is a long long list that would only end when my $ will end.
that's human nature more he gets, his needs and desires increases and he finds more and more ways where he can spend

now to mention the things what i m going to do with these $, there are some things i think should be kept between you and Allah(SWT) only or it will come in Riya.. we all try to make our intentions pure but we don't know when little pride enters our heart or some praise may ruin the purity of our niyaah and we loose the reward of it...

well beside such things a wish i have that can be fulfilled if i get lots of money is to travel around the world, city to city and country to country, explore as many places as i can, specially the lands that belongs to sparkling history of Muslims and i would start it with Spain, turkey and so on..

If i got 1 million dollars i will go for Hajj then afterwards meat with King Abdullah and buy his scimitar and thats it. If anyone knows how to appreciate a good blade its me and i would do anything to obtain that beautiful scimitar. Made of Damascus steel no doubt and its folded i can tell. Call me cheap but thats all i would know how to spend money on.

AbdullahWithSword.jpg Im coming for that sword majesty Abdullah ;D. My obsession will be my reality (doubtfully).
 
I finally know what a Scimitar is. I thought it was a made up word. :hiding:
 
If I got a million bucks...

Definitely donate to charity... and I would like to travel the world and meet Yusuf Estes :happy:

Probably build a mosque and a school too
