Trapped in the Dunya (Deen & Money)

After Maghrib
About this episode

If money makes the world go round, are Muslims allowed to get rich? Working hard, earning a Halal living, and providing for your family are not just life necessities; they are considered acts of great worship. In this episode, our co-hosts navigate various scenarios, using insights from the Ahlulbayt (as), to discuss whether money can lead to losing your Akhirah (afterlife) or if finding a balance between faith and Dunya is the ultimate reward for financial freedom.
