We believe that a true and comprehensive
understanding of Islam would not be possible without careful recognition of the
Prophetic Tradition and the Prophet's Household. And Allah is the Source of Strength.
In Allah We (Should) Trust
" As a salaried employee, we will plan our spending, vacations and cash flows based on the certain income that we will receive in the next 30 days. Never will we plan something more than what we pocket, and if our salary is attractive, we will not ask for loans from friends or steal to satisfy our needs and desires, because we know that we will have that cash with us in only a matter of time.
This is our certainty of the rewards that await us as a result of our hardwork, our salary and bonuses. It is the certainty and the trust we have in our employer that they will respect their end of the contract and pay us 30 days after our sweat for them.
Imagine how the world would have been a different place, if we were certain about the good news, and the warning, the Prophet (SAW) had brought us. Allah, not only the knower but also the creator of the unseen, is certain that the hour will come, if only we were as certain as about receiving of our retirement funds from our employer 40 years later."
