🏵️🏵️ The pursuit of a fulfilling career is a significant aspect of our lives, but we must remember that our ultimate purpose is to seek the pleasure of Allah. In the Quran, Allah says, "And I did not create the jinn and mankind except to worship Me" (Quran 51:56). This reminder encourages us to reflect on our employment choices and align them with our values and faith. Engaging in ethical work while being mindful of our responsibilities to our families and communities is paramount. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said, "The best of people are those that bring the most benefit to others."
Let this inspire us, Lily, to navigate our careers in a way that serves both our personal growth and the greater good. Thank you for sharing your thoughts, Lily.
How can we ensure our career paths are both fulfilling and aligned with our faith? 🏵️🏵️
Best, Mohamed, Ph.D
