Dear brothers and sisters.

we know the basic profession is to be a Muslim ( or Any for friends from other religions).

But wat is the profession that we seek in this Dunia.



I shall Begin with Shible ( it's me ).

I am a Software engineer

Expertise : Reporting



I hope that i would be recieving some support from our Forum members

Why worry about profession for Dunia? Why can't you follow the Sunnah? Marry some wealthy widow and spend your time for Islam. You'd be successful in Duniya as well as in Akhira. You see plenty of successful people make easy money from any profession they choose. They spend a part of it on Islam. Nobody points at them for making unfair money. In this way they're successful in Dunia. The religious scholars who get funds from them give them certificate of good Muslim. Hopefully, they'd make it good in akhira too. Learn from the example of successful people.

I agree with all your thoughts but the reason for me to create a thread in this topic is

I wish to help our fellow brothers and sisters,

Since most of us do share information and support towards our Religion Islam. I am really proud. But it is also said that we should also be helpful to all the people

If i live in a way you describe

Why can't you follow the Sunnah? Marry some wealthy widow and spend your time for Islam. You'd be successful in Duniya as well as in Akhira. You see plenty of successful people make easy money from any profession they choose. They spend a part of it on Islam. .
(Insha allah i shall surely try to follow most of those points of your).


I can only help people in my city or nation

but by this thread we shall try achieve activities upto some extent. such as

1. helping our brothers or sisters with knowledge, wealth, busines oppurtunity and employment oppurtunity not only within a country but wide across the Globe.


If i am wrong in any case of my thought was wrong in any sense then please do Correct me

No that's not right. Choosing someoen for their wealth to depend on her means you've lost half your qiyaamah (i.e. responsibility of taking care and maintaining your household)... because Allah says:

34. Men are the protectors and maintainers of women, because Allâh has made one of them to excel the other, and because they spend (to support them) from their means. Therefore the righteous women are devoutly obedient (to Allâh and to their husbands), and guard in the husband's absence what Allâh orders them to guard (e.g. their chastity, their husband's property, etc.)....

So by putting the obligation on your wife to spend on you, you've stuffed half your responsibility.

That's not to say the wife shouldn't be wealthy or can't run a business (if she's fulfilling her responsibilities), it just means that you shouldn't ask her to do more than the hard work that's already assigned to her.

The sahabah where all full-time workers, yet they still foudn time to serve Islam properly.

in the case that the husband is married to a wealthy woman and he is poor, ofcourse she'll be extremely rewarded very very very greatly if she still helps him, hence why Khadijah is ranked so highly and with esteem since not only she helped the prophet, but also fundd his entire dawah.

take care all the bset :w:

I shall first congratulate dougmusr and woodrow

I am really proud that i am in the forum were People are so powerfull in achieving themselves in both the Dheen and Dhunia.

Since most of us who are working on a single profession for many years think we really have achieved many things

but we compared to them we have just touched 30% of growth.

I mean that you need a huge courage to leave the present job and change your expertise. since this is were we usually feel a bit insecured

I shall take both of your efforts as a role model i shall surely help each and everyone in each and every means and will dedicate myself more towards hard work on all aspects

Profession: Classroom Teacher
Once when I was in grade 9 , my teacher asked us to write an essay on what we would like to be when we grow up. My best friend wrote she'd like to be a teacher. I was very angry with her as I tought that we two being excellent students of the class should choose some really outstanding proffessions for us, like doctor, engineer, lawyer etc.
I never knew then that my fate will bring me to be a teacher myself.

Expertise: I just n only love to be a mother more than anything else!! The best job in the world:) :)

I worked at a small company that was willing to bet my chemistry background combined with my software/firmware experience would be sufficient for understanding process control. It turned out that some of the equipment used a controller which was programmed in a language called Forth. I picked up a shareware version and learned the basics before going to the interview.

My experience is that smaller companies are the best bet when attempting to gain a breadth of experience since there is more opportunity to do a little bit of everything.
