Step 1 to making money for yourself is believing you can do it, most people are already planning for when their business fails. Fix your mindset as a priority.
Prophet Mohammad ﷺ said: No Arab has any superiority over a non-Arab, nor does a white man have any superiority over a black man, or the black man any superiority over the white man. You are all children of Adam, and Adam was created from earth.
You need to give 1000% if you want to be successful. Just focus on anything for a few months/years and you will have everything you want. Think about making your parents proud, It’s your time now!!! Let’s go my brothers, let’s not live with regret🫡❤️
Interesting thread and a good question brother.
Lets take it step by step;
All the work you did, the things you achieved, was it for the sake of God? If no, you are in no position to in the first place expect great things to come your way. So all those beautiful things (in this life) have only come your way out of the mercy of the almighty, wouldn't you agree? Why would you then be entitled to keep those things if you are not even thankful to He who gave it to you?
Then let's move to the argument of thinking that something is good or bad for you. As you said the Almighty is all-knowing, so He knows much much more than you do. Consequentially this means that if we would rationalise who knows if something is good or bad for you, The All-knowing would always know better as He has knowledge of the unseen (past, present and future). This is also where submission to God comes in (which is the definition of a muslim btw).
If this is something you cannot accept as you said, you have a clear problem with rationality😃
Then lastly to answer (to the best of my ability) the question of what you would be living for if everything is already planned. Firstly, that everything is pre decreed goes hand in hand with the fact that we have still been given free choice. For example, I think we would agree that our daily life is fuuulllll of choices. You chose to go to the gym (I hope), you chose to eat or not to eat, you chose to get work done. And then even if you would say that it is already pre decreed who will go to paradise and who will go to hell, it would make no sense for us to just get there directly, before first experiencing a total different existence where we most face a lot of hardship and tests. We only appreciate sunshine as much as we do because we have plenty of times where there is none. We have much more appreciation for food when we have been hungry.
I hope I clarified some things for you👍🏽
If you’re tired of being out of shape realize how lame it is that you literally suffer because you can’t control what you put in your mouth.
Like a baby.
