Question:
assalamoualaikoum,
My fiance wants to setup a new business. He is currently working as a teacher and is finding it harder and harder to cope financially.Alhamdullilah we thank Allah for what we have. However, my fiance wants to improve our future living conditions ( we are getting married this November) and he doesn’t have the necessary means for it (building a house for instance). This explains his wish to set up a business.
But bearing in mind that things are going to change soon with the coming of Imaam Mahdi a..s, is it possible to go forward? He will need to take a debt to setup.
Jazaak Allah Khair
Allah bless you
Answer:
Alaykum as-Salam,
You should go ahead with your plans as we explained in a similar post. See http://www.eshaykh.com/?p=9888 . See Mawlana Shaykh Nazim’s advice for business people and business ventures toward the end of his sohba of July 3, 2003 available at http://sufilive.com/Sohba-3042.html .
