I actually found this article to be a refreshing change in perspective from the other articles online that promise a lot but deliver little.

For example, I have a business selling products online. Profits have been up and down. I don’t have much control on what people decide to buy that day. This is entirely up to Allah (swt) and recent events, like COVID-19, remind us how little we can control.

We all know people get wealthy for various reasons and it doesn’t always match up to intelligence, effort, or any other method we would think is fair or predictable.

I appreciate you distilling this Islamic advice in a short article because I too needed the reminder, especially the one that reminds us to seek forgiveness.
