I am working for a bank in the computer department

Mu' meneen Brothers and Sisters,

As Salaam Aleikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh.  (May Allah's Peace, Mercy and Blessings be upon all of you)

 

One of our brothers/sisters has asked this question:

as salaam wale kum,

 

I have to ask something i am working for a bank in the computer department somehow although i earn a handsome salary there is no barkat in that,i feel the reason for that could be banks salary, so me and my wife decided to shift back to india and start my own business but for that my wife opted to do ISTIKHARA she regulary after her ishaa namaz used pray the ISTIKHARAs duaa and pray to allah for our betterment,allah subannah kept on helping us but my worry is that no problems in the night but after my wife goes back to sleep in the morning after i leave for the office she started dreaming diff things like one day she saw a cat has scratched her hand and she is bleeding, the other day she saw a big stone falling on our entire family (including my mother,brother and daughter) but the stone fell little ahead of our family,and the another day she saw she is drowning in the water.....

 

what does all this mean I am still in dubai and planning to send my family in next 15 days and after month or so i will be also going back as I feel bank salary is not halal and also in dubai most of us have credit cards and we do spend and pay credit card interest to the bank ,

 

,,so all this is disturbing me not knowing what is right and wrong should i go back to india where i will be earning much lesser than what i earn in dubai but at least that will be 100% halal or should i cont in dubai and ask for the forgiveness from allah, if allah wants me to go back than what does those dreams mean that my wife saw in the morning time can u pls help?

Answer:

 

Leave bank and start business

In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear witness that there is no one (no idol, no person, no grave, no prophet, no imam, no dai, nobody!) worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that Muhammad (saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.

 

Al-Muwatta Hadith 52.4

Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya ibn Said that Abu Salama ibn Abd ar-Rahman said, "I heard Abu Qatada ibn Ribiyy say that he heard the Messenger of Allah (saws) say, 'The good dream is from Allah, and the bad dream is from the shaytaan. When you see what you dislike, spit to your left side three times when you wake up, and seek refuge with Allah from its evil. It will not harm you then, Allah willing.'

 

Allah Subhanah has bestowed man with intelligence and the power of assessing and reasoning, and Allah has permitted man to use these bestowed faculties to make the important decisions in his life. One should not decide such important decision as moving place of residence and scope of work based on a dream; but rather intelligence dictates that one should carefully assess the situation, study the conditions, evaluate the options available, and then come to a proper decision; and always put his full trust in Allah Subhanah Alone.

 

Beloved Brother in Islam, if you leave something which has clearly been declared forbidden by Allah and His Messenger (saws) only for the sake and fear of Allah, Allah is our witness, He will bless you in whatever step you take towards Him.

Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 3 Surah Ale Imraan verse 195:

195 …Never will I (Allah) suffer to be lost the work of any of you be he male or female. Ye are members one of another; those who have left their homes, or been driven out therefrom, or suffered harm in My Cause, or fought or been slain; Verily, I will blot out from them their iniquities and admit them into Gardens with rivers flowing beneath; a reward from the Presence of Allah, and from His Presence is the best of rewards.

 

Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only due to Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me alone. Allah Alone Knows Best and He is the Only Source of Strength.

 

Your brother and well wisher in Islam,

 

Burhan
